I applied online. I interviewed at Tata Consultancy Services (Pune)

Interview

The TCS interview process generally involves clearing an Online Assessment (aptitude, coding, email writing), followed by multiple interview rounds: a Technical Interview (core concepts, problem-solving, your projects), a Managerial/ < Behavioral Interview (leadership, handling challenges, real-world scenarios), and an HR Interview (communication, cultural fit, motivation). The number of rounds can vary, but these three are standard for evaluating technical depth, behavioral fit, and suitability for TCS's work culture.

Answer question

Application

I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Tata Consultancy Services (Nueva Delhi) in Oct 2025

Interview

My interview at TCS for the Junior Software Engineer role was overall calm but a bit challenging. The interviewer was polite and started with basic questions about my background, projects, and programming languages I had studied. The HR part went smoothly, but during the technical round I felt nervous. Some questions were manageable, but I got stuck on one core concept, which affected my confidence. Even though I tried to explain my logic, I realized my answer was incomplete, and I was not selected in the final result.

Question 1

They asked me to explain the concept of Data Structures, specifically the difference between an array and a linked list, and where each one should be used.
