Latest updates on 2009 Batch Q1 Results ILP Materials

All that freshers who got placed last year are concerned about now is their joining date. Offer letter has been already provided early this year. It has been just a few days since our semester exams ended. Results are soon to be declared within a few days. Me and my friends who got in TCS are all waiting when we will be contacted for our medical tests, a routine followed by TCS every year. Things are looking pretty good ist2_8810466-laptop-and-grass-newwith respect to financial condition of TCS as they recently recruited about 250 freshers from the 2010 batch for their Cincinnati branch. It’s a matter of time now till we get our medical tests done and get our joining letters.

From various communities and discussions by TCSers it seems joining won’t be before September or October 2009. Till then it’s time to do something like revising old stuffs and learning new stuffs with renewed vigor and energy, as it’s entirely up to us how we utilize our time now. Many of us are enjoying merrily playing cricket and football matches and having the time of their life, a fresh beginning, a transition period, a never-before-experienced phase between our academic and professional careers. Really looking forward to utilize this time in really creative useful positive way for personal growth!

shall TCS give the joining by this year itself?Or there are possibilities to hold it back?

Rahul June 14, 2009 7:58 PM  

@mita
TCS will give DOJ soon enough I guess, situation will become clear as soon as some colleges start getting the joining dates... :)

mita June 19, 2009 6:26 PM  

Has TCS given any date of joining in any of the colleges?

Anonymous,  June 25, 2009 2:05 AM

Hello guys I am from Gujarat,In Gandhinagar in march I met few students from andhara pradesh having ILP there so they already have your joining date and they were from 2009 batch

Rahul July 3, 2009 11:41 AM  

@Gujarati friend above: 2009 batch students pass out of their last sem in the month of June, the guys you saw in March were no doubt of 2008 batch :)

Anonymous,  July 3, 2009 12:30 PM  

Hi All

Will TCS inform the colleges about the status of the joining date??

Rahul July 3, 2009 12:39 PM  

Of course, TCS will, if not the TPO, they will mail us directly, which has a higher probability...

kiran,  July 3, 2009 2:23 PM  

will it be in this year??

Rahul July 3, 2009 2:29 PM  

High probability is in the last quarter of this year, keeping fingers crossed!

Anonymous,  July 4, 2009 9:53 AM  

Hi Guys
There is chance that they may inform joining dates on or after 20th july for Andhra students...thats just a probability..as to my knowledge none of 2009 has yet received their DOJ....so in the mean time just chill...

Anonymous,  July 4, 2009 2:41 PM

Gouthami,  July 7, 2009 3:20 PM  

hi everyone who got Selected in TCS. I am from andhra Pradesh. TCS,Hyderabad branch selected 123 students from our college on April 4th and I'm one among them. I heard that they may call for medical check up and all in september.
Does anyone have appropriate information about when they r going to call us for the Medical test.

I heard that all Indian Companies r competing for the UID project from the Indian Government. Its a 15,000 crore project with time span of 5 years. Let us all wish that TCS should get that project.

If anyone have any info. about TCS Medical chkup or DOJ please share with everyone........
Lets Hope for the Best.....

waiting_tcs,  July 9, 2009 7:32 PM  

Yes the rumours are that the joining date would probably be after september.. i guess the basis for calling is based on their priority list of colleges.. just hope that ur college is one among there higher ordered ones..

cool guys....dont worry ...we hope the best ...in the mean time just improve technical skills.....i heard that TCS will start calling from september according to priority of colleges they had

Anonymous,  July 12, 2009 10:01 PM  

i am confused..i talked with a high placed TCS personnel back in late february , he almost assured me of the fact that they are not going to call before october, and suddenly for last 1 or 2 days ,this wild speculation i hear is that they are going to give dojs soon after conducting the medical test, which is tentatively scheduled in early august(according to them, spare me if wrong).since when markets became so promising??

p.s. i would love to hear from those who have been waiting for the call but has CAT in mind as ultimate goal...are you registering for mock cats or not??

ankur July 13, 2009 12:31 AM  

I think the information for the medical test is given via mail or the TPO will inform us .Please if anybody getting joining letter or medical test info please post

Rahul July 13, 2009 8:47 PM

agniva,  July 15, 2009 2:52 PM  

hi all...
i just wanted to know that the address verification u r talking about,is it online or they will come to our home??

Rahul July 15, 2009 3:04 PM  

@agniva
They came to some of my friend's homes to verify, but mostly they verified through phone calls. We had been given a background clearance form to fill up and submit before that to our TPO.

Giri Prasad,  July 15, 2009 4:48 PM  

@agniva

TCS ppl will come to our house for Address verification... they will take a signature from us and our parents...thats it...

Pondicherry,  July 15, 2009 6:38 PM  

Our Address verification was completed in March..No Medical Verification until now..Those students who are in same state of mine tell whether you got this Medical verification done??

Plz don't worry abt rumors. When TCS starts communicating with us or some colleges start getting joining dates the scenario will become very clear.

Rahul July 17, 2009 5:04 PM  

@aashu
No news of any joinings anywhere buddy..only medical dates (those too rumors) are doing the round. You can keep in touch with me by email on the top right to stay updated of any developments.

Hey...Actually I am in an address now new yar... They might have did verification there na rahul?

Anonymous,  July 17, 2009 9:42 PM  

Q1 results are out, they beat the expectations, but at the same time while answering the question about the recruited ones of 2009 batch, global hr ajay mukherjee seemed a bit negetive(just a tad)..ofcourse he said that they will fulfill their commitments, but simultaneously he also talked about their inability to place all recuited persons of previous year to a project.he talked about "controlling the recruitment policy" ( i don't really know what that means,may be i am being pessimistic)

now,as the tension continues, i would like to hear from you about if you reserved a second option in case we grow old before the DOJ comes..are you ppl writting any other exams??what about you rahul??

Rahul July 17, 2009 9:51 PM

Oh yes, you should inform them of your new address :)

The new campus recruits of 2009 batch will start joining the company in this quarter and will be staggered in 3 different quarters. And TCS will go for more campus hiring starting from Jan 2010 only."

Anonymous,  July 18, 2009 3:55 PM  

hi aginva, are you ,by any chance an ECE student of IEM ?

Rahul July 18, 2009 5:07 PM  

59.92 is a very very tricky situation, first contact ur friends, then ur tpo...u may try to ask for help from tcs...but am not sure whether they would allow, as 60 often means 60.00.

samriddha July 18, 2009 5:29 PM

ok , i don't want to speculate on anything, i can not confirm what biswajay sir said, because i heard it from another friend of mine,who happens to be a student of iem as well,and that was not a verbatim quote.When i wrote it in the previous post, i was rather inquiring about the authenticity of the news than stating it.
it was a bit unexpected although very amusing to know rahul is well aware of B.C ..small world, eh??

You can use your time learning programming. You can strt with dr. scheme which is also taught during the ILP in TCS so tht you can have a headstart in training.

Hi, i am Naresh. I am from Guru Nanak Dev University, Amritsar, Punjab. Our Placement Cell has informed us that TCS is surely going to provide joining letter by the mid of September ruining all the rumors. So no matter of worry at least.

hi agniva, our placement office has confirmed that TCS is commencing this process by the mid of
September and wiil continue calling the students college by college. Only this sort of info i have. I can't tell this that whether it is applicable to only north zone (delhi) or rest of the country. But we will be together there in TCS after two or three months, and thats for sure.

Hai frnd,

Dnt worry abt all those saying. Since TCS didn't inform anythng formally, letz wait..TCS used to keep up their promises:)There is no reduction in package nd so....Dnt confuse with all those rumours.

NISHANTAM,  August 4, 2009 11:33 PM

Vaibhav Shah August 5, 2009 11:45 AM  

hi everyone... i m Vaibhav here from MSU, Vadodara, Gujarat. 2009 batch mate, placed in TCS.. I talked to HR of TCS, Ms Surekha Ravella, she says that TCS may call the ppl from gujarat in october-november,not before that... That's the news i got on 1st August.

Anonymous,  August 5, 2009 11:50 AM  

tcs used to send their token emails(as if symbolising we haven't forgoten you)..but its been long time since i received the last one(ispeak ). i am also hearing kolkata ppl will get their training at cmc ,wouldn't need to go to bhubaneswar or trivandrum...god knows what is true and what is rumor

sumit,  August 5, 2009 2:50 PM  

Hello Tcs guys,
i am sumit form vit( vellore institute of technology. From our college tcs recruited 1072 students this year so i am sure they cant back now. i heard that tcs guys are making batches for various college n it will take still more time. May be we have to wait till oct end. lets hope we all get it sooon..

Anonymous,  August 5, 2009 7:16 PM  

hey tcsers.. i am from GCT coimbatore..i read in this blog that medical test s not finished for GCT.. its a rumour..we and cit finished together in jan 09..our placement cell informed us tat u ll get d DOJ from jul to sep.. but we didnt get yet..my friend called to hr chennai..they said tat dont worry med test finished only for few ppls.. u r one among them.. so don worry u ll b called soon..upto my knowledge in tamil nadu only GCT and cit finished med test..i want to in all over india who r all finished their med test..also i forgot to inform u that v r informed that the duration of training ll b 5 months.. expecting answers soon...

Anonymous,  August 6, 2009 6:55 AM  

This is malini,Iam not an engineering student, but a BCA graduate selected in TCS (offcampus at VIT)for IT Infrastruture. I was a 2008 pastout batch. received a revised offerletter insept 2008.
med check and bgc was finished in 2008 itself.
july 2009 i got a call from tcs, they told me that hey will inform my joining date soon.
This is true.
Another news i got from my friend that a VIT student(arts and science) got the joining date(july 21).I dont know this is true or not.

freeman,  August 6, 2009 8:04 AM  

hi,
I am really shocked to know that TCS selected 1072 from VIT,thats too much...I dont know why TCS transformed from recruting qualitatively to quantitatively...I think TCS is now feeling the heat after recruiting so massively (remininding me of army jawans recruitment)...but the present situation should be a eye opener for TCS,so that in future it will select based on quality,but not every guy who comes out tagged "ready for work"...no offence guys..

Anonymous,  August 6, 2009 10:29 AM  

Hi,
i am from South side Tamil Nadu college, AKCE. We all have got offer letter and no medical test yet. When will we have medical test? And, Is the call by TCS based on college ranking or something else? We were recruited by TCS in May 2008.
If anyone knows details, let me know.
Thanks in advance friends...

Anonymous,  August 6, 2009 11:15 AM  

Hello friends,
This is the 200 th comment which shows how desperate we are for joining TCS.
Atleast they should inform us when the joining date will be no matter if it is late (hoping for the earliest) so that we could plan out things and dont just sit idle.
We can't even join another company for 2 to 3 months.

Anonymous,  August 6, 2009 12:00 PM  

why questions being posted here..rahul's not an information technology expert,market expert or something...a TCS HR concern neither....

Anonymous,  August 6, 2009 3:22 PM  

Hi all,
Iam bharath from chennai. I got placed in TCS this june got my offer letter but i have not yet received any info abt the medical tests. I heard that TCS mite b scrapping medical test and that they will start calling from Sept. This info was given by vice presiden HR in an ILP which was held in chennai. I still will have to confirm tis. Plz let me know abt the DOJ and keep updating.

Anonymous,  August 7, 2009 10:05 AM  

How much time we will get after getting the medical check-up information till the medical check-up date, I am planning to have a trip broad for 15 days. I am afraid if the call medical test falls in between ??? Can any one help me, I am from SASTRA Thanjavur selected for TCS

Anonymous,  August 7, 2009 10:52 AM  

I quote below the statement of Mr S Ramdorai, CEO & MD of TCS which has been published in 'Times Of India ', Calcutta edition of 07.08.2009.
"Quote"
These recruits (18,000) will join us from third quarter onwards
"Unquote"
Therefore, there is no reason to speculate. Let us wait.

Anonymous,  August 7, 2009 1:48 PM  

hai tcs guys.real fact.,.,
