TCS to hire 25,000 more software professionals

Who said India is in recession or growth slow down period ? Did you hear, what TCS (Tata Consultancy Services) has announced few days back ? TCS is hiring 25,000 people globally in fiscal year 2009 and 90% of them in India alone. Be it in Quarter revenue results or people hiring, TCS is continuously exceeding the market expectation.

Oe of the top IT services company in India, TCS hired 35,000 people is last fiscal year. So, its relatively less number of hiring for them in this fiscal year. Also, it was said they are going to start IT operations in Tier 2 cities, as their existing offices in metros like chennai, bangalore, hyderabad, mumbai, kolkatta can’t accommodate such a huge new numbers.

Meanwhile, they have been very active in campus recruitment also this year, who would join the company next year. They usually visit top 25 colleges in and around TamilNadu in the first few slots and grad the creamy layers. Last year campus recruits’s joining dates were delayed by 6 months or so. Now, it is been heard they have been receiving joining calls in stages. With additional 25,000 head count, TCS’s total IT army would be around 1.8 lakhs, which would promote it as one of the largest private Indian Employers.

Text resumes will be around for a long time. Because everyone can type.
But everyone cannot write a story or a poem.
So, there will also be a demand for expert / professional resume – writers, for a long time to come.
But an ever-increasing number of recruiters feel that graphical / visual / audio resumes have an edge over plain text resumes – prompting emergence of path-breaking job-portals such as ( it is easy to be inspired, but , at the age of 77 , difficult to implement ! )

TCS and Infosys have resumed their campus recruitment drive in many of the Engineering Colleges in Chennai and other parts of Tamil Nadu. And, I expect them to come to SVEC as well since it is one of the well known and leading college in chennai. But, I don’t have any authentic info from these companies on their campus recruitment schedule. Will update you once i get to know more info.
