TCS Interview Experience (Off-Campus) 2021

TCS NQT Exam: After clearing the NQT Test of TCS with 86 percentile, I got shortlisted for the Ninja profile.

Technical Interview: In the technical, they asked me to introduce myself and I gave the usual introduction of 1-2 minutes. Then they asked me about my preference for programming language and I said Java. Questions on Java were as follows:

• OOPS Concepts
• Java Database Connection (JDBC): https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/jdbc-tutorial/
• Platform Independence of Java: https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/java-platform-independent/
• String Mutability of Java: https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/java-string-is-immutable-what-exactly-is-the-meaning/ 
• Memory allocation while compiling the program: https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/stack-vs-heap-memory-allocation/ 

 Next, They asked me about my projects. I used Javascript in Frontend and Php-MySQL in the backend. My questions were:

• My roles & responsibilities in the project
• Some OOPS concepts in PHP
• Basic questions on MySQL
• How did I deploy the application?

HR Questions were very Basic:

• Do you wish to relocate?
• Why TCS?
• Are you flexible in rotating shifts?

That’s it folks, be very sure of what you put in your resume. Overall, knowledge of any one programming language & some database concepts should suffice for Non-CSE students.

If you are from CS or IT background, chances are high you could be asked about your core subjects(DBMS, Operating Systems, Computer Networks) Stay Positive, Confident & do not lose hope.

Wish you all the Best!!
