TCS' technology-driven hiring system has revolutionized its talent acquisition approach through initiatives like the TCS National Qualifier Test (NQT), an assessment-based hiring program, and technology competitions such as TCS CodeVita, the world's largest programming competition certified by the Guinness Book of World Records. These programs, combined with TCS' long-standing partnerships with premiere colleges and universities, have been instrumental in scaling its talent pool.
