India’s biggest IT services company Tata Consultancy Services or TCS will be hiring over 40,000 freshers from campuses in India in the fiscal year 2021-22.
The firm, the largest employer in the private sector with a base of more than 5 lakh employees, had hired 40,000 graduates from campuses in 2020 and will do better on that number, the company’s chief of global human resources Milind Lakkad said while speaking to reporters.
He added that the coronavirus pandemic-related restrictions do not pose any difficulties in hiring and added that last year, a total of 3.60 lakh freshers had appeared for an entrance test virtually.
“From the campus in India, we hired 40,000 last year. We will continue to hire and hire 40,000 or more this year in India,” Lakkad said, adding that lateral hiring will also be “robust” this season.
Similarly, the company will also do better on the 2,000 trainees hired from American campuses last year, he said, without sharing an exact number.
