TCS Doubles Down on AI: Doubling Freshers While Skipping Headcount in Strategic Shift
Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) has announced a strategic enhancement in their hiring practices by doubling their fresher intake for FY25 to about 40,000 recruits. Not stopping there, they've also trained an impressive 217,000 employees in AI, placing a significant focus on upskilling in response to industry demands. Curiously, TCS chose not to disclose their total headcount in their Q3 FY25 earnings, signaling a deliberate pivot towards nurturing fresh talent while exercising caution after periods of over-hiring. This move positions TCS firmly on the road to recovery, perpetuated by a robust fresher recruitment strategy amid a global IT revival.
