The other panel member took over the interview, asking the following questions?

  2. The services it provides?
  3. If it has any association or tie-up with TCS? Do you know about it?
  4. Why do you want to join TCS?
  5. CEO of TCS?
  6. Chairman of TCS?

In the evening, I received an email for the HR interview and document verification which was scheduled the next day, i.e 5th March.

Round 3:

This round was supposed to be HR as was mentioned in the email. But, it was more of a virtual document verification process.

I had a very positive interview experience.

Note: Be honest and only mention the information which you know of, in your resume. If you don’t know any answer, do not try to bluff or beat around the bush. Admit it that you are not very familiar or that you can not remember at the moment. Read about the latest trends in technology. All the very best!

The results were declared on 11th March and I got short-listed for the Ninja offer!
