India's growing stature in the Information Age enabled it to form close ties with both the United States and the European Union. However, the recent global financial crises have deeply impacted Indian IT companies as well as global companies. As a result, hiring has dropped sharply, and employees are looking at different sectors like financial services, telecommunications, and manufacturing, which have been growing phenomenally over the last few years. But this does not mean that the Indian IT companies are not going to be hiring individuals anymore it just means that there isn't much demand for individuals willing to enter in it and this is solely because of the economic variances within the country in comparison to other more successful countries.
