In fact, our recruitment partners continue to see high interest from top talent in the country, who want to join team Paytm and play an important role in redefining India’s digital landscape.”

As news reports suggest, crisis-hit edtech and fintech firms Byju's and Paytm are seeing a surge in their employees who are looking for safer pastures and going on job hunts.
A 5X jump was reported in jobseekers from Paytm in the days that followed the RBI crackdown on the company. Usually, the typical active count of accessible talent from Paytm was in the 800 to 1,200 range. However, the job market currently has over 6,000 active and accessible talent from Paytm.
Meanwhile, once India's most-valued startup at $22 billion, Byju's has experienced a dramatic fall as it battles everything from cash crunch and legal battles to investors asking for a leadership overhaul. Byju's brand image is severely battered, following the crises.
