Cognizant cries foul as TCS hits campuses a week before time
Nasdaq-listed information technology services provider Cognizant has approached industry body Nasscom after Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), India's largest IT services company, started its campus recruitment process almost a week ahead of the industry's normal recruitment schedule.
According to sources at engineering institutes in Tamil Nadu, TCS and some other firms will start recruitment from September 1 this year. And, recruitment at some four or five colleges, including a couple of those in Puducherry, started from August 23-24.
When contacted, a spokesperson for TCS said: "We are doing what we have done in the past."
