Bhubaneswar is now the only tier-2 Indian city hosting operations from all five of India's top IT majors, and the state government is actively building it into a larger IT hub. The smaller and mid-sized IT and services firms growing alongside that shift are hiring fast — and a small HR team screening every resume by hand becomes the actual bottleneck to filling a role, not a shortage of candidates.
PwC-backed 2026 recruiting data Resume screening is now the second most common AI recruiting application after job description writing — exactly the stage where a growing firm loses the most time.
