I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Tata Consultancy Services (Indore) in Jan 2025
Interview
The interview process felt quite vast and unstructured. The panel asked questions from completely different domains, many of which were not related to the role or my resume. It seemed like they had very specific expectations, and only wanted candidates who could immediately match all of them. Their approach was more like: “We need this exact experience — if you can fulfill it, answer; otherwise, we don’t need you.”
Instead of evaluating my actual skills, potential, or the experience mentioned in my CV, they focused only on rigid requirements. Overall, it didn’t feel like they were looking for someone to train or support as an intern, but someone who already had complete expertise in multiple areas.

I applied in-person. I interviewed at Tata Consultancy Services (Pune)
Interview
😞 Yesterday I had a very disappointing experience with my TCS interview.
💻 It was supposed to be for ReactJS and Python, but the interviewer only asked very basic questions — not even coding-level ones.
🐍 Even for Python, there were no programming-related questions at all.
🙁 Honestly, the interviewer didn’t seem good, and the whole experience felt like a waste.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Tata Consultancy Services (Texas City, TX)
Interview
It consisted of two rounds
- Phone call( Technical screen)
- Technical round (python, OOP)
Recruiter coordinates you with interviewer and their schedule. Main questions where on python's syntaxes, OOP cocepts, previous experience

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Tata Consultancy Services
Interview
Horrible process
1. HR called me. Scheduled interview with technical team
2. Technical team interviewed me. Asked me mostly basic Python questions (anagrams, duplicates in string, two sum). Interviewer was nice and understanding.
3. Manager round- The manager was extremely rude. Kept grilling me about why I am switching companies, why I am not growing in 1 company, why I am working from home, why I am running after salary. They had no intentions of meeting my salary expections which really infuriated me for wasting my time.
5. HR asks for 3 dozen documents right from 10th standard marksheet to every single company offer/relieving letter as well as payslips. ALL THIS BEFORE EVEN GIVING AN OFFER. I complained about this but they did not agree. I gave documents eventually.
All this was followed by pin drop silence They ghosted me and wasted my time.

Question 1
Asked me mostly basic Python questions (anagrams, duplicates in string, two sum). Interviewer was polite.
Only Manager was very rude-- he was purely there to demoralize me and make me accept lower salary.
