- Numbers are not strictly comparable because they belong to different samples, but the samples are identical.
- Drop in India numbers can be attributed to the non-participation of TCS, which was part of the sample last year.
- Rise in the US numbers does point towards increased hiring of professionals in the US by offshore vendors in IT and contact centers
- Numbers in China does not signify an overall rising trend; at best the numbers should be construed to be stable and growing, but definitely not decreasing.
- Increased deal activity in UK is the reason behind increase in the numbers.
- Numbers from Latin American countries like Argentina, Chile, Colombia, and Mexico alongwith Brazil are on a steady rise. This trend is undoubted, though the numbers from the sample are not significant enough.
