TCS Campus Recruitment Procedure
TCS is hiring in full swing and visiting campuses for hiring candidates in December - January. Those who are looking for detailed recruitment procedure - here's it:
To be taken in the campus computer network -
1. Aptitude Test: 90 Minutes for 90 questions
The test contains many aptitude questions which aren't very tough. You can move around questions and revisit the questions if you skipped them in the first 'go around' the question set. However, there are three sections [Verbal, Quantitative & Reasoning] and you *cannot* return to a section once you've left it.
2. Psychometric Test: 30 Minutes for 120 questions
I always wondered why TCS has this test in its campus recruitment process. Lot of students fear this test as there is 'nothing' really prepare for. So here's a tip for all of you: Just answer all the questions with positive attitude. This test is a multiple-choice question. For example if the question is "While organizing a friend's birthday party", opt for answer that is most positive and energetic (like "I take the lead and organize it").
Also, another most important tip is "Stick to the 'positive' tone" you've adopted. It's very important as the questions will be presented to you random order.
3. Technical Interview:
You'll be questions mostly on your final year/third year project and basic programming skills. Also be prepared to answer few questions on your engineering trade.
4. Personal Interview:
If you've reached the Personal Interview, there's a 99% chance you'll get through. Just answer all the question, have good communications skills and be confident, not over-confident.
