Interviewed Dec 2010 in New Delhi (India) (took a day)
Initially, just like everyone else, my perception of TCS was that of a bulk recruiter. Nevertheless it was supposed to be and is a good platform to start your career with.
The interview preparations included searching Internet and asking seniors to know the type of questions asked and the difficulty level.
An advice: Be prepared to explain in detail your FINAL YEAR PROJECT and to face a number of questions on it.
Now when I am in the company, the great points about it are its values and ethics, and feeling of being a part of a large organisation. People here cannot be generalized as it is a large organisation with a wide range of behavior to be seen. Though, in general, the environment is good and discipline-focussed.

Interviewed Sep 2011 (took a day)
The interview Process consisted of three phases -
1) The online aptitude test : The questions in the test were all expected questions apart from 2-3 questions which were not expected, though they were not difficult. To clear this test , go through the previous test patterns and practice those questions thoroughly and you should have no problem clearing the test.
2) The 1:1 Technical Interview : Once you clear the aptitude test , you will be called for the 1:1 technical interview. This interview can be very tough for someone and can be a cake walk for some because it all depends on your luck,if you get a tough interviewer then be prepared to answer questions from north pole to south pole but if you are lucky you may only be having a communication skills test. In all cases, the important thing is how you are saying and not what you are saying, so concentrate more on the presentation of your answers rather than the mere content.
3)The 1:1 Hr Interview : This is the last round. If you get through the technical interview then chances are you will not be rejected.The Hr person asks you couple of questions, more for formality than for anything else.You will be asked if you have any problems with relocation and the package will be disclosed to you.
Tips : Smile and be polite while giving your answers.
