ICICI Bank Regional hub in Bhubaneswar: to employ 15,000 eventually
Banks, Bhubaneswar- Cuttack- Puri, ICICI, Khordha, Uncategorized May 24th. 2007, 10:47pmTathya reports that ICICI Bank will sign an MOU with Orissa government to set up a call center and back office operation for banking and insurance. This center to be located in Infocity will eventually hire 15,000 graduates from normal colleges. In terms of the number of people they will hire, this is a big deal; much bigger than the overhyped POSCO or Mittal deals. ICICI Bank will not use our mines; will not pollute our atmosphere; will not displace people; and will only need 12 acres and yet will hire 15,000 people. Orissa should be going after more such companies and less of the metal and mining kind.
Notes:
- Earlier in April this year ICICI Bank made a similar announcement with respect to Hyderabad.
- In 2005 ICICI Bank had planned for the eastern hub to be in Kolkata.
- ICICI Bank is different from the BPO company ICICI Onsesource which is now renamed as First Source.
- ICICI bank recently launched the ICICI Knowledge Park in Hyderabad.
