How to Write a Resume for TCS

TCS interviewers scan resumes fast — often at TR (technical round), MR (managerial), and HR. They look for clean formatting, strong academics (CGPA / percentages), a project section, and internship or client-project exposure. Certifications from Coursera / Udemy help freshers. Presentation matters here more than at product companies.

What actually works

Tips that get TCS resumes shortlisted

  1. 01

    Include SSC, HSC, and college percentages/CGPA — TCS explicitly checks academic cutoffs (usually 60%+ throughout).

  2. 02

    Add a Projects section even if only college projects. TCS interviewers grill on projects to test fundamentals.

  3. 03

    Certifications matter: mention any Coursera / NPTEL / TCS iON courses — freshers get shortlisted faster.

  4. 04

    Keep it 1–2 pages max, black-and-white, no fancy graphics. TCS values traditional formats.

  5. 05

    For experienced hires: list client names, project domains, and technologies clearly — TCS staffing looks for exact matches.
