@HDFCBank_Cares @HDFC Bank

2021 passed out students have every right to raise question upon this. Whether those students are avoided because they are covid batch or any other reason is there.

Need clarification.

The discrimination against candidates who have passed out during the COVID pandemic has begun.

We need to nip this in the bud.@HDFC_Bank pic.twitter.com/U5xwwr0Ush

A set of people believe that HDFC could be looking for people with experience for the required designations and the advertisement might have left out 2021 passed out students, considering their lack of experience. Few also believe that the circulating picture is fake. However, we have to wait for an official confirmation from the bank.
