HI ALL!!!
TCS was the 2nd mass company which came to our college campus!!

The first company i wrote... 

My only consideration was working for a company based in India..N there were s few..BUT TATA was always the first choice.

for,TCS is asia 's no.1 company...the best work environment(lot of grt feedback from my seniors)!!

we had our online test on 31st july,..results were announced soon..N i was shortlisted along with other 89 out of around 180-200 who took the online test!!! n they gave us forms n gave instructions to fill the form...BUT for our surprize,INTERVIEWS were postponed to the next day!!

in one way,it was good as we now had ample time for preparation for tech n other rounds...!! but 'tension' was postponed !!

Made the best use of the available time...prepared on my fav subjects-digital electronics,logic design,communication subjects.
