TCS to hire 55,000 this fiscal

Tata Consultancy Services will recruit 55,000 personnel in 2014-15 as Asia’s largest IT firm expects stable demand for its offshoring and back-office services over the next 12 months. The Mumbai-based company has already given 25,000 offers to fresh technical graduates. Most of the remaining recruits would be laterals (experienced personnel), said Ajoy Mukherjee, Executive Vice-President, Head, Global Human Resources. For 2013-14, the IT major had projected overall hiring of 45,000, but upped the target by another 5,000 during the year.
