TCS -on various job profiles at its end
Mr. Samraj, HR Manager with TCS at Chennai, spoke about the various avenues TCS offers in the field of Systems, HR, Marketing and Operations to the MBA recruits. He told that as a System’s MBA one could get into the role of a Business Analyst where the job description will be focused on client interactions, requirements gathering, analysis and estimation models etc.
For someone who is an MBA with a specialization in Marketing, he said TCS had job opportunities for them in the marketing divisions of its various verticals. The job description here was related to discussions with potential clients across the globe to pitch for projects, finding out new markets for TCS etc with the designation most probably as that of a Business Analyst.
TCS now has operations across 75+ countries all over the world. Some of these are onsite development centers, delivery centers, technical support offices etc. With such a huge employee base spread all across the globe, managing human resources is one of the most important tasks for TCS. As a result, today TCS is recruiting HR students from various premier MBA institutes to manage its human resources. According to Mr. Samraj, TCS now has HR people at all its onsite offices, so HR people also get a chance to go onsite like techies. He said every new MBA–HR was made to go under special training programs on a periodic basis to keep them up to date with the current HR trends in the IT industry and that the career growth in a company like TCS was phenomenal.
The session was highly interactive and Mr. Samraj gave insights on various queries raised by the students regarding recruitment procedure, career growth, package structuring for MBA’s, life at TCS, and what TCS means to its employees.
Overall it was a very informative session for all the students at BIM Tric hy as they got to have a first hand view of what a career would look at TCS after placements, 5 years down the line and probably also 10 years down the line.
