New Delhi: Medium size towns, known as Tier-II cities, have outpaced the metropolitans in creation of white collar jobs in the private sector, indicating a recovery in the overall employment market, a study has revealed.

Employment opportunities in the private sector increased by close to 30 per cent in the second rung cities, while in top metros, they improved by about six per cent in the first seven months of the current fiscal, the study by Assocham found.

However, the job creation in Delhi NCR showed a decline of 23.42 per cent and in Mumbai by 3.28 per cent this fiscal compared to last financial year.

But bulk of the employment among the metros got generated in the two cities, with Delhi claiming 34 per cent and Mumbai over 13 per cent share between April-October this fiscal.
