The thinking for the programme began in the fourth quarter of last year. The firm plans to hire 100 people in these roles this year, said Piyush Mehta, chief human resource officer, Genpact.
So far, Genpact has hired 65 of the 100 people planned for this year. Broadly, the company has planned for half the candidates to be internal; the other half, external.
