TCS has recruited over 10,000 freshers, as confirmed by multiple colleges to Moneycontrol, marking a break from a hiring slump. This hiring surge reflects TCS’s optimism for a demand revival in the upcoming financial year.
Recruitment commenced through the National Qualifier Test (NQT), an assessment platform by TCS iON. The process, including the NQT, began in April, with tests scheduled for April 26 for priority and other colleges.
TCS offers three categories of roles: Ninja (₹3.36 Lakh per annum), Digital (₹7 Lakh per annum), and Prime (₹9-11.5 Lakh per annum). This tiered package approach aims to attract top talent, signaling a shift from traditional entry-level offerings.
TCS conducts tests at its iON centers nationwide, while students from trusted partner colleges undergo examinations on campuses.
Despite a delayed recruitment cycle, TCS seeks candidates proficient not only in coding but also in problem-solving and creativity. CEO K Krithivasan emphasizes that positive headcount growth depends on a clearer demand outlook.
TCS had aimed to recruit 40,000 freshers in FY24, following a decrease in net employee addition in FY23 compared to the previous fiscal year.
