HCLTech, which completed five years of successful operations in Romania, said a third of the new roles would be offered to graduates recruited through partnerships with leading Romanian universities.

The company currently employs approximately 1,000 people in Romania to serve global clients by leveraging its portfolio across digital, cloud, engineering and software. It was named as a Global Top Employer for 2023 and certified as number one in Romania by the Top Employers Institute for its HR and people practices.

“We are investing in creating opportunities for local talent in Romania to pursue careers in technology. As we celebrate our fifth anniversary and embark on the next phase of our growth journey in the country, we remain committed to supercharging progress for our people and local communities,” said Iulian Paduraru, HCLTech’s country lead for Romania.

HCLTech has signed Romania’s Diversity Charter, and 47% of its employees in the country are women, which is well above the national average and that of the global technology industry. HCLTech also has a comprehensive internship program in Romania to help train students and hire them for entry-level technology roles. It is also serving local communities through its corporate as well as employee-driven environmental, social and governance (ESG) efforts.
