BENGALURU\/NEW DELHI: Job losses<\/a> arising out of consolidation in the telecom sector are likely to extend over the next year, with a range of positions across categories likely to be affected, placement firms said. However, the prospects for those laid off are not entirely bleak: alternative jobs are available, although candidates may have to upgrade their skills and settle for lower salaries. 班加罗尔/新德里:失业引起的电信行业的整合可能会扩展到第二年,射程的职位类别可能会受到影响,放置公司说。然而,这些下岗并不完全暗淡的前景:可选择的工作是可用的,尽管候选人可能需要升级他们的技能和接受更低的工资。

\nAs Reliance Communications shuts the bulk of its wireless business and the Tata Group sells its mobile business to Bharti Airtel, the axe will fall on an average of 20,000 to 30,000 jobs over the next 12 months, according to estimates by the heads of firms including TeamLease Services, Manpower Group Services, ABC Consultants, Randstad India and Korn Ferry.
\n
\nThose working in infrastructure and networking engineering, sales and distribution, telecom engineering, HR and finance, call centre and other support functions will be in trouble, experts said. “The sector is burdened with an enormous debt — close to Rs 8 lakh crore — and is operating under tremendous pressure after the entry of Reliance Jio with its free-to-dirt cheap-tariff offers,” said Rituparna Chakraborty, co-founder of TeamLease Services.

Most of the job losses will be in the telecom infrastructure space and frontline sales and distribution, said Gaurav Burman, principal- global technology, Korn Ferry India. “The industry<\/a> is looking at moving towards software-defined networks and infrastructure as a service, and most importantly in the user experience space.”
\n
\nJobs in data entry, tele-calling, ground sales, with annual salaries ranging from Rs 1.2 lakh to Rs 2.8 lakh, will become obsolete. “The major impact will be on the mid and lower levels — mostly the support functions will face the heat,” said Chakraborty.

\n
\nMost of the cuts will be in the technical and engineering side, which typically command monthly salaries between Rs 40,000 and a few lakhs, depending on seniority, said AG Rao, group managing director at Manpower Group Services.
\n
\nRandstad India CEO Paul Dupuis said those in HR, accounting and finance can expect to see job cuts, their roles becoming redundant thanks to automation. Many of those in consumer sales can also expect to be let go as companies will need fewer feet on the street.
\n
\nWHERE THE JOBS ARE<\/strong>
\nExperts said telecom workers who are laid off over the next year or so can find alternative employment if they upgrade their skills and become cognisant of new technologies in the space of user experience, Internet of Things and artificial intelligence.
\n
\nInfrastructure and network managers can find jobs in e-commerce and fintech companies where they will be able to use their skills in data and analytics, said Korn Ferry’s Burman.
\n
\nJobs in user experience at larger information technology companies may also be up for grabs for the mid and senior levels, with expected annual salaries ranging from Rs 60 lakh to Rs 80 lakh. However, as recruiters will be inundated with CVs, those shifting from telecom must be prepared to take pay cuts, Burman said.
\n
\nThose in the technical verticals can look at getting reskilled in information technology to become eligible for roles in testing and research & development, said Manpower’s Rao.
\n
\nThe logistics, retail, e-commerce and FMCG sectors may be good options for those laid off in data entry, sales and distribution and tele-calling. Those in accounting and finance can look towards the banking, financial services and insurance sector for employment, said Randstad’s Dupuis.
\n
\nWithin telecom itself, roles expected to be in demand include radio frequency engineer, system analyst, SAP consultant and embedded hardware developer, commanding annual salaries between Rs 2 lakh and Rs 6 lakh. This growth may be attributed to the spread of mobile phones services, said Chakraborty.
\n
\nBroadband and Internet service providers — including ACP and Hathaway — will be a good option for those in network roles. “There are many technology and education-learning startups that are mushrooming, which may also be viable options for them,” said ABC’s Mehta.<\/p><\/body>","next_sibling":[{"msid":61472165,"title":"Samsung India sees 40% growth in handset biz in festive season","entity_type":"ARTICLE","link":"\/news\/samsung-india-sees-40-growth-in-handset-biz-in-festive-season\/61472165","category_name":null,"category_name_seo":"telecomnews"}],"related_content":[],"msid":61476124,"entity_type":"ARTICLE","title":"Tough times ahead for telecom employees; up to 30,000 face axe","synopsis":"Workers in infra and networking, sales & distribution, telecom engineering, HR & finance and other support functions will be in trouble, experts said.","titleseo":"telecomnews\/tough-times-ahead-for-telecom-employees-up-to-30000-face-axe","status":"ACTIVE","authors":[{"author_name":"Brinda Dasgupta","author_link":"\/author\/479241941\/brinda-dasgupta","author_image":"https:\/\/etimg.etb2bimg.com\/authorthumb\/479241941.cms?width=100&height=100","author_additional":{"thumbsize":false,"msid":479241941,"author_name":"Brinda Sarkar","author_seo_name":"brinda-sarkar","designation":"Special Correspondent","agency":false}},{"author_name":"Varuni Khosla","author_link":"\/author\/479233399\/varuni-khosla","author_image":"https:\/\/etimg.etb2bimg.com\/authorthumb\/479233399.cms?width=100&height=100","author_additional":{"thumbsize":true,"msid":479233399,"author_name":"Varuni Khosla","author_seo_name":"varuni-khosla","designation":"Special Correspondent","agency":false}}],"Alttitle":{"minfo":""},"artag":"ET Bureau","artdate":"2017-11-03 08:13:54","lastupd":"2017-11-03 09:45:45","breadcrumbTags":["Job losses","telecom sector jobs","jobs report","IoT skills","Industry","Artificial Intelligence skill","layoffs"],"secinfo":{"seolocation":"telecomnews\/tough-times-ahead-for-telecom-employees-up-to-30000-face-axe"}}" data-authors="[" brinda dasgupta","varuni khosla"]" data-category-name="" data-category_id="" data-date="2017-11-03" data-index="article_1">
