TCS iBegin: Careers For Experienced Professionals

Introduction

TCS has been immensely popular in India owing to the charitable and growth-promoting tasks that the organisation on the whole carries out. Thus, many young graduates plan to associate themselves with the TATA brand, owing to its glorious history of contributing to India’s development.

Every year TCS recruits young B.Tech/BCA/M.Tech/MCA graduates through its National Qualifiers Test for the positions of Assistant System Engineer and System Engineer. However, some of the graduates are not able to make it through and are left with the wish to join TCS someday.

So, if you too have ever dreamt of joining TCS, but somehow you were not able to and, now that you are working in another company but still live on with that dream, then here is an opportunity for you. TCS has introduced its iBEGIN portal for experienced professionals who are looking for a job change or planning to work with TCS. 


So now the question lies, who all can apply and what is the process of registering at TCS iBegin, so let us know them all.

Eligibility Criteria

TCS accepts job applications from experienced professionals through the iBegin portal. Only those who have experience in the industry for at least two-three years are eligible to apply. You can specify your choice of location and the job profile to which you want to apply.

The work domains include Finance, IT Services, Marketing, etc. Let us see at a glance the eligibility criterion to apply for the TCS iBegin platform.

  • Must have a score of a minimum of 60% or above in 10th,12th and UG/PG.
  • must be a graduate of B.Tech/M.Tech/B.E/M.E in the following specialisation: Information Technology, Computer Science & Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Communications, Electrical Engineering, Electronics & Communication, Instrumental Engineering.
  • Or a graduate of MCA, B.Sc, BCA,B.Com, B.A, but must have Statistics/Maths as a subject.
  • Those who have an M.Sc degree in Information Technology or Computer Science can also apply.
  • Must have experience of three years and relevant skills, in the domain you are applying for.
  • Candidates who have appeared in a TCS interview in the last 6 months are not eligible to apply.

Although I have mentioned that a minimum of two years of experience is required, if you go to TCS iBegin portal, then you will find that there are fewer job offers for professionals who have experience of two years. Careers at TCS mostly require professionals who have an experience of 3yrs and above in their selected domain.
