Candidate-Experiences
Hi!
I am Nanigopal Datta from Burdwan (West Bengal). I am pursuing MCA from Techno_India, Hooghly (2011 passout batch). TCS conducted placements in Techno-India, Saltlake in 27-12-2010. Every colleges under Techno-India Group have participated in this campussing.
There was two Rounds:
1. Online aptitude Test
2. Interview-Technical & HR (Both in one round)
But there was a condition. That is every top Five students of each stream of each college need not seat in online apttude test. They will go to the direct interview round. Besides it if you have 75% marks through out your career (for B.Tech Students) then you also need not seat aptitude test. There was total 2500-3000 students appeared for TCS. I don't know the exact figure. But after eleminating 2000 students appeared for interview. From there 1500+ students got job finally.
