NRIs head back to India for career opportunities


According to a study by TimesJobs.com, nearly 60% of all the surveyed employers said that they are experiencing an influx of human capital from foreign shores. This is backed up by the statistic that nearly 60% of the organisations say that compared to early 2011, the number of expatriates in their organisation have definitely increased.

Highly skilled professionals are returning home seeking the economic opportunities that they once sought abroad.
