experience certainty

UPDATES ON 14-05-09:

First of all don't fight my friends becoz we all are future of our TCS.

Points I want to make clear:

1. Neither SASTRA nor PATIALA got their DOJ yet.
2. Today I have telephonic conversion wid one of ma senior who is currently working wid TCS and he also agrees that this time medical can be at ILP center as cost cutting measures.
3. I already discussed what Pre-ILP training means.It doesn't have any benefit apart from knwledge.So chill..
4. All of us will get joining that is confirmed because TCS has grabbed most of the project this year and banglore and chennai have lots of project waiting for us.


TCS HR mail to our TPO:

TCS is a brand name and it will
hold the promise by honoring all the offers being made to all students.
However the market is volatile and this is what is not letting us to
exactly tell students, the precise date of joining but we will certainly
consider the preferred date of joining given by the candidate(while
accepting the offer letter) before batching them.

Kindly communicate this to all students to remain confident about their
joining. I will come back to you with further updates as soon as possible.

Pre ILP:

They used Dr.Scheme to conduct the Pre-ILP course . Before coming to ILP please get some ideas about the following

Structured programming
Structured Modeling
Object oriented programming

TCS HR @ Pune:

TCS HR visited a college and said that Batches haven't been finalized yet .So there is delay in medical checkup . 2009 batch will get joining September onwards....

TCS extends training period:

Tata Consultancy Services has decided to lengthen the training duration for campus recruits to six months from three months, said Ajoy Mukherjee, Vice-President and Head, Global Human Resources, TCS.

“At the fresher level, we have five or six common streams. Instead of training them in just one stream, now we would be training them in two different streams (domain areas or specialisations like maintenance, ERP, Java, .net etc),” said Mukherjee.

Indian IT majors have been finding it tough to keep techies occupied, especially freshers, since new projects are petering off.

While the move may slightly up the company’s employee costs, Mukherjee feels that the investments would help in development of organisational competencies.

“We are flexible about it; if suddenly the market changes and there is sufficient demand we will adjust accordingly,” he said. The training programme can be accessed by campus recruits from various centres of TCS.

During the fiscal gone by, TCS had hired more than 22,500 freshers; more than 1,000 had joined during the fourth quarter. Earlier this year, Infosys Technologies also increased the training duration for freshers from three-and-a-half months to six months.

MEDICAL Check Up:

Today we talkd to our T&P and he said that recently he recieved a mail from TCS saying that we will be communicated abt MEDICALS shortly.......!!

TCS Bond:

U will have to deposit 50,000 Rs, by draft or get a surety of any income tax payee owning some land stating that they will pay this bond amount in case u leave the company before the bond period.

UPDATES TILL 23 SEPTEMBER 2009

As I told you long back that joining will start from september onwards and now all of you can see thats came true. I can assure you that each and every information written here has trusty source.

1) I talked to one of my senior and he told me dat 2nd batch vil b called in oct.TCS will inform abt joining jst 15 days b4 .TCS will call arnd 2k students in batches in oct n major intake will b in 3rd quater(oct-dec) as said by Global HR mr. Mukherjee he also said dat dis time training period is increased.
He told me dat more than one batch trained at ILP center parallely and time span between two batch joining can be 15-40 days.
So have patience n u vil b informed abt joining very soon...

2) The variable pay component, paid monthly, accounts for 19% of the total pay package of trainees and now they would have to be content with 9.5%.

If u r not getting VA for six months, it's automatically going to be 9.5%... coz VA will start after 6 months.. So if it's cut down from 19% to 9.5% , that 9.5% won't be incurred for 12 months.

3)Dis yr tcs called CS/IT students earlier dan non cs/it students( I mean branch is criteria dis yr)

4) ILP is now called ITP -> Initial Training Program.

5)TCS has sent a total of 3 OLs to date. The second and third are the same. Please check your status at nextstep for acceptance of offer letter.
