Personnel search in India – a start: India is often cited as the country with endless resources of well-educated Indians. It is true that an impressive number of several 10.000 Indians leave internationally established or increasingly respected universities as graduates every year. However, it is often overlooked that there is an equally continuously and rapidly increasing need for well-qualified workers leads to a supply-demand dilemma.

Personnel selection, personnel retention and personnel development

For companies that want to get involved in India, there are special and complex challenges when searching for personnel in India. The topics of personnel search, personnel selection, personnel retention and personnel development are of central importance; especially among the academically trained Indians who are to be recruited as the management elite of international companies. These challenges also arise when an expat is sent to India for a certain period of time, because in this set-up there will also be at least one Indian manager in the following position.

The complexity of the issue of human resources in India does not only arise from the macroeconomic framework conditions. The differentness of Indian culture also contributes significantly to the complexity and complexity and thus to a great lack of transparency. In order to find the 'right' personnel in India, it is therefore a basic requirement to have knowledge of Indian culture. The deeper and more authentic your insights are, the higher the likelihood of success.
