Sources close to the Infosys BPO claims that the company management is asking the present employees to refer the experienced ex-employees who were fired during the recession.

A source speaking to TechEye on the condition of anonymity says: "We have been asked to bring our friends to the company which is normal in employee referral programs. But, what is interesting here is we have been asked to bring back the ex-employees who left the company during the recession phase."

This aggressive hiring strategy is nothing this year as during the end of every year, companies do go for referral hiring. The exception here seems to be the lucrative incentives that human resource management is offering employees for bringing the ex-employees.
