Tata's lost its touch? TCS ain't what it used to be :-(
Tata is not the same after Sir Ratan Tata! TCS used to really look after its employees, even when they were on the bench. Now, things have changed and it's disappointing.

Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Test
Experience: We were asked to solve a questionnaire containing 25 questions based on logical reasoning and basic mathematics. We went to the test center in their recruitment center where there were many desktops for the candidates to sit and give the test. At the entrance, they checked the letter we got from them to authenticate us.Then they gave us a login ID and password. Exactly when the test started, the portal became active and we were asked to enter the credentials. I completed the test in half the time as it was pretty easy and straightforward.
Tips: Practice simple aptitude questions for greater speed and accuracy.
Duration: 1 hour
Total Questions: 20

Round: Group Discussion
Experience: Ten candidates who were shortlisted from the written test attended the group discussion. The topic given to us was fairly simple and lucky for me, I used to work as an anchor, and being a strong feminist person, I had a lot of valid points to put forward. I was the one to start the discussion, and I felt I was the best speaker there. The topic was something that I follow regularly, yet I came across a few unique points from the other candidates.
Tips: Improve your English speaking skills. Be assertive and speak concisely.
Duration: 15 minutes

Round: HR Interview
Experience: The interview basically revolved around this one question which had a few follow-up questions, such as who all are there in my family, what are my strengths and weaknesses, and why am I fit for this job.
Tips: Be confident and honest about yourself.

Round: Technical Interview
Experience: I tried to be as calm and confident as possible during the whole of the interview

Interview Preparation Tips

General Tips: This interview was a technical one but was majorly a stress test. It lasted for about 1 hour 10 minutes. The interviewer wanted to test both my knowledge and communication skills. Most of the questions asked to me were related to my B.Tech curriculum i.e. computer science related topics. He stressed a lot on the basics related to my project topic. Luckily I was able to answer most of the questions correctly. I tried to answer each question with examples and also used props on the table (like pens, paperweights, pen stands etc.) to explain my theories. It was my first offcampus interview, and I think I did pretty well for a fresher.
You need to stay calm and should apply presence of mind. Please go through the job description thoroughly word-by-word and recheck your resume to ensure that you are a best-fit for the position.
