E-commerce and home grown companies dominate the list of preferred
employers in India
As per LinkedIn, none of the traditional companies in the FMCG, durable and auto sector feature in the list of most sought-after employers in India.
Despite several negative branding, layoffs and its tussle with a premium institute such as IIM Ahmedabad over pre-placement offers, Flipkart is still the most sought after employer in the country – LinkedIn says so.
Now what makes Flipkart the most sought after employer in the country.
The rationale is Flipkart has an interesting on-boarding activity. On their first day, employees are picked up by chauffeur-driven cars and sent on a treasure hunt to familiarise themselves with the office. Employees with over two years at Flipkart can take a career break to pursue higher studies, spend time with family or attend to medical emergencies.
Following Flipkart is yet another e-commerce layer – Amazon. According to LinkedIn, Amazon is the second favourite for job-seekers because it offers ‘Leave share’ to the employees as part of their parental leave policy, allowing employees to gift six weeks of paid leave to a spouse or partner, who isn’t eligible for parental leave at their employer’s.
Such small gestures or practices do matter a lot for the employees but can’t be the core reason for choosing an employer over the other.

executive directors from within
Previously,
50 percent of the total posts of executive directors were filled by internal
candidates and the rest were recruited from outside the organisation.
The Securities and Exchange Board of India
(SEBI), in a bid to promote talent internally, has decided to fill
two-third of
its executive director posts from within the organisation. The market regulator
has in line with that, made necessary changes to its policy to ensure that it
hires internally.
Only the remaining one-third positions will be filled up by deputation/contract hires. Previously, 50 percent of the total posts of executive directors were filled by internal candidates and the rest were recruited from outside the organisation.
However, SEBI mentioned in a notification recently that two-third of the total posts from internal candidates and the remaining one-third to be filled up by deputation/ contract hiring. Sebi currently has six EDs and is planning to increase the strength further.
