The intent to hire freshers in the media and entertainment industry showed a decline of 3 per cent during the first half of this calendar year (January-June), according to a report.
However, the overall intent to hire freshers rose 6 per cent year-on-year, as per the TeamLease EdTeach's Career Outlook Report HY1 (January-June 2024).
Around 3 per cent decline is expected in intent to hire freshers in the media and entertainment industry, bucking the overall upward trend across many other sectors, the report said.

Further, the report revealed that hiring trends in media and entertainment also found varying preferences for job roles across cities with Delhi dominating in video editing with 27 per cent and Bengaluru leading in production assistants with 23 per cent, it stated.
