Enterprise Hiring for India's Largest Companies

When you're hiring 5,000+ professionals annually across multiple business units, cities, and job families, you need infrastructure that scales. LayersRank provides the evaluation backbone for India's largest employers — consistent assessment, auditable decisions, and efficiency that compounds at scale.

The Indian enterprise hiring reality

India's largest companies operate at hiring volumes that break normal processes.

Infosys hired 50,000 freshers in a single year. TCS, Wipro, and HCL operate at similar scale. Large Indian banks onboard thousands of officers annually. Manufacturing conglomerates hire across dozens of plants and locations. Reliance, Tata, Mahindra, and Adani group companies each run hiring operations that rival mid-sized companies' entire headcount.

At this scale, small inefficiencies become massive costs.

The math of enterprise screening:

30 min

Interviewer time per candidate

3:1

Candidates screened per hire

10,000

Hires per year

₹45 Cr

Annual first-round screening cost

And that assumes those screens are consistent. They're not. When hiring happens across Chennai, Bangalore, Hyderabad, Pune, NCR, and Kolkata — with different business units, different hiring managers, and different local practices — standardization is nearly impossible.

The result: inconsistent quality, unpredictable outcomes, and decisions that can't withstand scrutiny.

Why Indian enterprises need different infrastructure

Scale That Western Tools Don't Understand

Most enterprise hiring tools are built for Western companies hiring hundreds per year with elaborate multi-round processes.

Indian enterprises hire thousands. Often tens of thousands. The economics are different. The volumes are different. The candidate pools are different.

A tool designed for a US company making 500 careful hires doesn't work for an Indian IT services company making 20,000 hires with tight margins and aggressive timelines. LayersRank is built for Indian scale from the ground up.

The IT Services Challenge

India's IT services industry faces unique hiring dynamics. Project-based demand creates hiring spikes. A new client engagement might require 200 engineers in 60 days. Bench management means you're always balancing hiring speed against utilization. Attrition rates of 15-20% mean you're replacing a significant portion of your workforce annually.

LayersRank enables rapid, high-quality evaluation. Screen 500 candidates in a week. Get scored reports within 24 hours. Staff projects with people who've actually been evaluated, not just whoever applied first.

The Conglomerate Challenge

Large Indian business groups operate across multiple industries: technology, manufacturing, retail, financial services, infrastructure. Each business unit has developed its own hiring practices.

But at the group level, you need visibility. You need to know that “strong hire” means the same thing across units. You need audit trails when questions arise. You need efficiency gains that compound across the portfolio.

LayersRank provides consistent infrastructure with configurable evaluation criteria. Same platform, same reporting, same audit trails — but tailored assessment for each business unit's specific needs.

The Banking and Financial Services Challenge

Indian banks and NBFCs hire at volume for branch networks, back-office operations, and increasingly for technology roles. Regulatory scrutiny is intense. RBI examinations, internal audit requirements, and compliance obligations mean every hiring decision needs documentation.

LayersRank provides the audit trail regulators expect. Every score traces to specific evidence. Every decision is documented. When compliance asks how you evaluated 5,000 officer candidates, you have an answer.

Enterprise Requirements

What Indian enterprises need

Consistency Across Locations

A score of 75 in Hyderabad means the same as a 75 in Kolkata. Every candidate for a given role answers the same questions, evaluated against the same criteria, by models that don't vary by location or time of day.

Speed at Scale

Send assessment links to 1,000 candidates on Monday. Receive scored reports by Friday. Make shortlisting decisions over the weekend. Start final rounds the following week. The limiting factor becomes your final-round capacity, not your first-round screening.

Cost Efficiency

Traditional first-round screening: ₹1,500-3,000 per candidate. LayersRank assessment: ₹500-1,500 depending on volume. At 10,000 candidates per year, that's ₹1-2 crore in direct savings.

Integration With Indian HR Systems

SAP, Oracle, Workday, or homegrown HRMS. Taleo, SuccessFactors, or something built internally. We integrate with what you have — legacy systems, custom databases, and hybrid environments.

Indian Data Residency

For regulated industries and organizations with data localization policies, candidate data stays in India. AWS Mumbai region. No data leaves the country. DPDP Act compliance built in.

“We went from ‘every delivery center does their own thing’ to ‘one standard, visible everywhere.’ When someone in Chennai says a candidate is strong, Bangalore knows exactly what that means now.”

What Indian enterprise leaders ask

How do you handle our hiring volumes during peak seasons?

Platform scales automatically. We've handled 5,000+ assessments in a single week for campus hiring seasons. No degradation, no delays. Your peak is our normal.

Can we customize assessments for different business units?

Yes. Each business unit can have its own role templates, scoring weights, and evaluation criteria — while still rolling up to enterprise-wide reporting and standards.

What about our existing vendor relationships?

LayersRank complements rather than replaces most existing tools. We integrate with your ATS, work alongside your background check vendors, and fit into your existing workflow.

How long until we see ROI?

Most enterprise clients see positive ROI within the first quarter of full deployment. The combination of reduced screening time, faster hiring, and lower dropout rates compounds quickly at scale.

Who manages this internally?

Typically a 1-2 person team in HR operations manages LayersRank enterprise deployments with support from our customer success team. We handle the technical complexity; you handle the hiring decisions.
