Also, reported were the exits of the CEO and key HR people.

Mushtaque Aalam, Global Head of Recruitment at Syntel Inc, has resigned.

In the industry, Mushtaque is regarded as an innovator in recruitment and has taken Syntel to a new, higher level when it comes to fulfilling its HR requirements.  His latest product is Syntellect which is an innovative online campus recruitment product that Syntel launched in partnership with Monster.

Mushtaque has also helped brand Syntel in various media events which have been covered by Business Standard, Hindu Business Line, Economic Times and other media.

Talk around the water cooler is that Mushtaque has joined hands with ex Syntel Senior Managers to launch a one stop HR Solutions organization which will also offer education solutions.  If all goes to plan, this venture, in which he will have substantial equity, will effectively double his Syntel compensation

According to Mushtaque Aalam’s LinkedIn profile, he has 13 years experience in HR with previous senior management roles at ICICI Prudential Life Insurance and Convergys. According to his profile, he has hired 80,000 Full Time Employees in the last 4 years
