New Delhi: India has emerged as the most optimistic nation in terms of hiring plans for the next three months following a dramatic turnaround in employer confidence after four consecutive quarters of relatively lackluster forecasts.

According to the Manpower Employment Outlook Survey released today by ManpowerGroup, the hiring pace for the upcoming quarter has rebound from both, last quarter and a year ago at this time.

The net employment outlook for India stood at 41 percent indicating that job seekers may benefit from a vigorous hiring pace in the months ahead.

"Employers expect robust hiring plans in all seven industry sectors and all four regions during quarter 4," ManpowerGroup India Group managing director A G Rao said.

The dramatic turnaround in employer confidence was largely due to the recovery made by IT firms and allied companies. Moreover, there is a big opportunity for the e-commerce sectors to add more jobs to the labour market.
