While 30,000-35,000 expats are estimated to be working at various professional positions in India at present, HR experts believe that at least 15-20 per cent of Indian companies have hiring expats for executive-level positions, including for the roles of CEO and board members. While hiring of expatriates across industries has been growing at a steady pace over the last two decades, this trend has accelerated considerably in the last few years.
