HR Round Interview<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p>In addition to the typical HR questions about your strengths and weaknesses, you can expect questions about why you applied to the company, why you should be hired, and other topics, including your work experience, education, interests, and family background. They can also ask about TCS&#8217;s founding date, goals, core principles, organisational structure, and other details.<\/p>\n<p>Most applicants think the HR interview is straightforward, but remember that even if you&#8217;ve passed all other tests, a subpar HR interview might prevent you from getting the job (aptitude test, technical round, etc.). The objective is to keep a cheerful and assured demeanour.<\/p>\n<div class=\"su-note\"  style=\"border-color:#c34e19;border-radius:5px;-moz-border-radius:5px;-webkit-border-radius:5px;\"><div class=\"su-note-inner su-u-clearfix su-u-trim\" style=\"background-color:#DD6833;border-color:#ffffff;color:#333333;border-radius:5px;-moz-border-radius:5px;-webkit-border-radius:5px;\">\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Final-Thoughts\"><\/span><b>Final Thoughts<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3745\" src=\"https:\/\/codequotient.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Final-Thoughts-1.jpg\" alt=\"Final-Thoughts\" width=\"1480\" height=\"480\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Tata Consultancy Services is India&#8217;s top IT services company and an excellent destination for engineering graduates.
