TCS Experiences1
When the time eventually ran out,I thought I would get the
message "Sorry better luck next time”, but by God's grace the
message "Congratulations,you can move to the next level".
NOTE: The TCS application form is your key from here on.
Next, "ok these are the reasons u want to join TCS. Why should
we hire you??".
My answer was "I do all the work that i undertake with utmost
sincerity and dedication"....(I finished it with an example of how I
handle my exams.)
When we were finished ...i shook hands and left with the
words,"it was a pleasure meeting u Sir."
I had a feeling of jubiliation when i came out.
After i get through my written test, I was sent to perform technical round. At first
they said to say SELF DETAILS. I continue with my RESUME included with
educational qualifications, strength, achievements etc... they said me to prove my
above strength which I mentioned in my resume. the above experience made me
away 4m my tension, nervous at first time interview. I am basically ELECTRICAL
AND ELECTRONICS ENGINEERING STUDENT, my technical round started
dis way ....
Interested topics???
I answered power electronics and electrical machines. I request 4 EEE students
not to mention CONTROL SYSTEMS topics. becoz it has large extend to ask ques
difficult to diffend 4 answering.
BEST THING I QUOTE U. before leaving 4m intervier, he will ask u any question
or doubts. at this moment u hav use 2 ur oppurtunity to prove urself. dat ur
interested towards firm etc... its ur turn u have ask questions abt TCS.
MR INTERVIEW:
This is also continue with self-details. the main motto is they will check ur
managerial skills, stress while ur working by asking few puzzles n question after
referring ur resume n body language. its 4 me I being EBM(EXECUTIVE BOARD
MEMBER) of AEE(ASSOCIATION OF ELECTRICAL ENGINNERS). they ask
me experience and work that hav u done. Problems that u have faced, response and
achievements. In this round you have to prove ur COMMUNICATION SKILLS. i
request u dnt make any false satatements lik to diffend urself. Plz be concious...
here if u selected 4 MR round intervier itself say u to wait 4 HR(HUMAN
RESOURCE) interview n again ask u any questions or doubt... its ur turn jst prove
urself.
HR INTERVIEW:

resume i written things or correct or nt,,, if v fail to prove our RESUME v will b
out of it. 4 me asked abt my presentations n hobbies.. really typical question he
will put while v r answering.. really check our patience atmost. ITS OUR LUCK
IT DEPENDS ON FACE VALUE.
The most eagerly awaited one, TCS had come to our college for recruitment on
OCT 15th, 2011 ("the unforgettable day in my life").
Let me explain the selection process. TCS decided to have two different process
and approaches for the selection process. One for those who have consistent
performance from 10th onwards till the VI semester undergraduate engineering
students (75% and above) and the same was also applicable to those from post
graduate disciplines. These students were interviewed without being administered
test. On the contrary, only those who had maintained consistent performance of
60% throughout were administered online test and were later interviewed.
I was under the 1st category. I had gone for direct interview. Friends before sharing
my experience, please note these things. Don't neglect TCS interview process. We
had a rumour that the TCS interview will be easy, we can easily get through. But it
was not easy as we speak. Please do necessary preparations. Be thorough with your
resume, C, C+, projects. This time TCS had given a wonderful opportunity that
non CS stream students can get jobs in Core engineering services of TCS. So no
need to worry as it's a IT company. Be proud to be a part of world's leading IT
company. And for our batch specially, TCS is great, as they took more people
during this recession period.
Technical interview:
HR interview:
Hr : Hi Priyanka
Me : hello mam, gud afternoon. (I felt very happy and became more confident
when hr said hi to me, as Hr is friendly. she was very sweet and bubbly. I think am
the one, giving these best compliments to Hr )
Hr : gud afternoon, take your seat.
Me : thank you mam
Hr : where are you staying? Do you have siblings? Where does he work? Married?
Me : answered
Hr : are you ready to work anywhere?
Me : yes mam. (and this is the most common question in Hr round)
Hr : you can go
Me : I asked two questions about TCS. Actually i could not ask these questions in
technical interview. So asked here
That's it my interview got over. I was confident as i will get place and it came true.
Around 8.30 they announced the results.
Friends as you red, for me there were no deep technical questions, and most of the
questions were unexpected like puzzles. I was good in solving puzzles and it's my
luck also that i got puzzles. We cannot predict about interview questions, so be
ready for everything.
His post will discuss the details of the technical/HR (2nd) round for the TCS
placement process. I have included mine and some of my friends experiences.
Basically there are 2 rounds for TCS. Once you clear the aptitude(In my college
127 out of 232 cleared aptitude) you have to attend a pure HR , HR/Tech or a pure
Tech interview round. Yes it might sound odd but there are 3 types of panels(HR ,
HR/Tech or a pure Tech) and depending on which one you go to the type of
questions asked vary. The following are the type of questions asked in each panel, I
have tried my best to get all possible questions asked to the 127 that attended.
Pure HR Panel:
Easy to clear for the most part, IT IS REALLY CRUCIAL THAT YOU SPEAK
GOOD ENGLISH OR ATLEAST TRY “. As far as i have seen most people with
good English speaking skills were selected
Tech Panel:
To be honest this isn’t hard really, all questions are simple nothing deep and tuff.
Some of the Interviewers did not even look at the code my friends wrote
they just took the paper and used it as paper fans :),
Networks and OS
This section had the most easiest of all questions, just study all the basics.
Other Department Students Tech Panel
Yes there is programming but it is not that deep here are a few samples
“explain about your project “(most frequent question asked to
78.9% students i got this information from)
Then the interviewer asks what programming languages you
know (most replied C), then he asks you to write a simple
programming like prime numbers ,swap without temp etc. In
some cases write any C program
To some EEE students the interviewer has ask how the
ceiling fan/generator etc works
4 Mech students and 1 ECE student told me that the HR
asked them their favorite subject and to explain about it
“what is CAD(he had CAD in his resume)”
Some questions related to data structures basics “what is
stack”
Overall Pragramming and OS concepts are not going to be asked much unless you
say you know them.For example if you say you know java obviously he is going to
ask a lot from it. Mostly others departments had HR questions only or
HR/tech.Everyone i asked said it was nothing tuff.Make sure you know
C programming , at least the basics.
Tech/HR panel
This is a mix and smash of both types of questions . Basically one HR will ask a
tech questions and the second HR will ask a HR questions. My friends kept on
talking for all the HR questions he says it help reduced the number of tech
questions asked to him (I do not know the degree of effectiveness of this idea ).
By far these type of panels are easy to clear too.
One more thing in my college students with cgpa over 7.5 had direct interview and
those with < 7.5 had to write aptitude which was tuff. Overall the hr/tech round is
not that difficult just be calm and you can clear it easy. Those who were selected
got the offer letter on the same day through campus commune.
Good luck and feel free to ask any questions
