Flipkart Unfreezes The Hiring Block
After a gap of almost two years in the hiring process, the e-commerce giant, Flipkart finally decided to increase the number of employees on its roster. According to HR consultants, the company is planning on hiring people in the fields of data science and analytics, among other areas.
The e-commerce giant now has 700 open positions. A majority of these positions are available for functions in the technology department, data sciense, UI & UX designers, product solution engineers, tech program managers, software developers, IT infrastructure, service delivery and IT applications.
According to HR analysts, Flipkart hired at least 20 graduates from the Indian School of Business (ISB) at a recently held hiring event. “Flipkart is aggressively hiring in tech functions. Over 80% of all current open positions at Flipkart is for technology functions,” confirmed a spokesperson for Flipkart, adding that the “aggressive tech hiring is part of the company’s ‘AI for India’ programme, which leverages Flipkart’s strengths in tech and data to build scalable AI-powered solutions for the country.” For this, the retailer has kept about 50 data sciences positions open.
After incurring a large loss in sales between the years 2016 and 2017, Flipkart had to trim most of its staff. By the end of 2017, Flipkart saw its corporate force being reduced to a mere 8,000 from a solid 15,000 member army of sorts. In fact, the company had to differ the IIM campus recruitment drives due to their severe cost trimming crunch. This new hiring round comes after Flipkart received $ 14 billion in funding last year.
This has ensured that Flipkart does not have to worry about capital in the near future. The company was also able to offer a part exit to some of its early investors, with Tiger Global and Accel Partners earning over $ 400 million and over $ 110 million respectively. Flipkart’s current and former employees also benefitted from the company’s over $ 100 million the repurchase programme. With a fresh round of funding and a new crop of talent, it certainly looks like Flipkart is on its way to break all technology boundaries.

BMW quietly debuted its new logo on the all-electric iX3, marking a significant yet understated shift in the brand’s design direction for 2025. The updated emblem retains the classic roundel and Bavarian blue-and-white colors, but sharp-eyed enthusiasts noticed subtle refinements: the inner chrome ring has been removed, dividing lines between blue and white are gone, and the logo now features a contemporary satin matte black background with slimmer “BMW” lettering. These enhancements showcase BMW’s embrace of modern minimalism while reinforcing their commitment to premium aesthetics and the innovative Neue Klasse philosophy for future electric vehicles.
Unlike rival automakers that reveal dramatic logo changes, BMW’s refresh is evolutionary and respectful of tradition. The new badge ditches decorative chrome and blue borders associated with earlier electric models, resulting in a flatter, more digital-friendly design that mirrors recent branding seen in BMW’s digital communications. Appearing first on the iX3’s nose, steering wheel, and hub caps, this updated identity will gradually be adopted across all BMW models—both electric and combustion—signaling a unified brand language for years to come.
BMW’s strategic logo update represents more than just aesthetic reinvention—it underscores the brand’s dedication to future-ready mobility, design continuity, and a premium EV experience. As the new roundel begins rolling out on upcoming BMW vehicles, it stands as a testament to the automaker’s depth of detail and thoughtful evolution, offering subtle distinction for keen observers and affirming BMW’s iconic status in the ever-changing automotive landscape.
