Now, IT major TCS to hire for campus placements round the year

Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), the country’s top employer in the private sector, will be changing its national qualifier testing for campus placements to a year-round process.

In 2018, offers were made to 30,000 freshers through its TCS National Qualifier Test (TQNT). Though high, this was down from those in 2016 and 2015, at 35,000 and 40,000, respectively.

Milind Lakkad, its newly appointed global head for human resources, said: “The process remains the same this year and we will apply the key principles of democratising talent as we go forward. We are going to make the test an ongoing thing…not a once in a year event but something people can take around the year.”
