Financial sector is witnessing a major boom in the country which is leading to talent shortage. Earlier this year, ICICI Bank MD KV Kamath had said that the company will be recruiting over 20,000 people every year for the next few years. ICICI has tied up with education institutions like NIIT and the Manipal Group to meet the requirements.
According to industry experts, Banking and financial sector is witnessing attrition level between 15% and 18%.
