Logistics vertical sees maximum job growth in 2019-2020

The study on India’s blue collar jobs industry takes a closer look at the job situation in the blue collar sector in India and how it is going to shape up in 2020. With over 1.3 million monthly active users and over 426 active clients present across 200+ cities, the conversion ratio of selections made-to-jobs posted was 33.85% in 2018, which rose to a whopping 70% in 2019. India: Logistics, sales, and customer service were the top three job functions that saw maximum demand for jobs this year, according to the ‘Blue Collar Jobs Digest 2020’ study by a tech-powered HR platform. While there was a 60% growth in the number of candidate profiles registered on the platform, there has been a significant increase in women candidates, who comprise nearly a quarter of all candidates registered. The platform also provided a healthy choice of candidate profiles - on average, there were 30 applications per job posted on the platform, over 2018 and 2019. “Industry estimates suggest that the logistics sector will create employment for at least three million people by 2022. We envision logistics to be the biggest job creator in 2020 on our platform, mirroring this trend,”
