Resource: Kelly Services India Salary Handbook & Survey for 2008…

If you are looking for salary benchmarks in India, check out this wonderful resource. Kelly Services is a leading international recruitment & staffing firm and they are deeply entrenched in India with offices in 12 cities. Kelly has released a Salary Handbook for India for 2008/09 that can serve as a very useful reference point for the latest salary trends & new job titles. They claim that the salary ranges in the handbook are a realistic representation of the jobs marketplace.

The handbook encompasses different areas – Banking & Finance, Engineering & Technical, Human Resources, Information Technology, ITeS – BPO, Logistics & Warehousing, Office Support, Sales & Marketing. It consists of job titles, suggested job descriptions along with the salary ranges.

The handbook is embedded in the form of a ppt below but it is available for download at the Kelly website.

I went through the handbook and it comes across as an excellent benchmark for salary data. The data looks fairly credible to me.

A big thanks to the company for releasing this publicly ( and free of charge)…

Please participate in the Empower Social Media Research Survey

EmPower is a global research & media services company based out of New York & Bangalore. They are conducting a research study about the extent & impact of Internet-based social media (blogs, wikis, podcasts etc) in India. This must rank amongst the earliest research exercises at understanding the consumer behavior in the social media space in India.

As part of the research, EmPower has created an online consumer survey which needs to be filled out by users. This is a short survey and takes app 7-8 minutes (I took it myself). Can I request the readers of this blog to spare a few moments and help them gather some meaningful & actionable data.
