Private Sector Job Openings in Tier-2 Cities Surge by 42% in 2025
Find out why Tier-2 cities are now leading in job creation.
The Randstad Talent Insights Report 2025 has highlighted an impressive surge in private sector job openings in India’s Tier-2 cities. The report notes a 42% rise in these cities, significantly outpacing the 19% increase in Tier-1 metropolitan areas.
This trend underscores a broader shift in India’s employment landscape, where smaller cities are emerging as vital hubs for talent. The decentralization is seen across various sectors including BFSI, manufacturing, retail, and IT, contributing to a more balanced economic growth nationwide.
Notably, cities like Chandigarh, Vadodara, Aurangabad, and Gandhinagar have been identified as key recruitment hotspots. The demand in these cities spans across diverse sectors such as BFSI, energy, automotive, and healthcare, highlighting their economic versatility.
The decentralized employment model not only supports local economies but also alleviates the pressure on larger urban centers by distributing job opportunities more evenly across the country. This is a positive step towards sustainable economic development in India.
