My TCS interview experience was very positive. The interview panel was friendly and approachable, which helped create a comfortable environment from the beginning. Most of the questions were technical and focused on my project experience, allowing me to explain my real-time responsibilities, challenges, and the solutions I implemented. The discussion was interactive rather than one-sided, with follow-up questions that tested my understanding in depth. Overall, the interview felt more like a professional conversation than a formal interrogation, which helped me stay confident and express my thoughts clearly throughout the process.
I applied through online. And it took nearly 6 to 12 months for the whole process. It was nice experience and interview was easy and they asked about project and there was an nqt test initially before interview
