TCS Could Raise Local Hiring - Tackling the Visa Rejection Issue

TCS is working on raising local hiring at onsites and planning Visas in advance to tackle the issue of increasing visa rejections by the US.

TCS CEO and MD N Chandrasekaran said, "Visa rejections have gone up... The whole visa issue is becoming serious and we need to see how we are going to execute a plan. Be it increasing local recruitment, planning visas much in advance, there are many things,"

Asked if the company had seen visa rejections rise from other countries also, Chandrasekaran said, "It is not US-specific, you will see it in other markets. Whenever there is unemployment, there will be changes in the regulations with regard to entry. The best way is to understand these changes and work with them."
