TCS Joining Delayed: What should I do as a September 2024 joinee after course incompletion?

Ans: Kinu,

You have NOT mentioned (a) Nature of Industry/Company you worked with (b) what was your Designation/Your Nature of Work & (c) Why you were terminated/Reasons for Termination?

To move to Labour Court, you should have an Appointment Letter (or) Pay-Slips (or) Show-cause Notice (or) Termination Letter (or) any other Document Proof like PF/ESIC Account Number (if applicable to you) etc. to prove in the Labour Court that you had been working there for 8-months. If NOT, you cannot move to Labour Court.

My suggestion (based on my Experience & having worked in HR-Administration Department in Delhi/Muscat/Chennai) :

(a) It is better to move ahead with another job without moving to Labour Court against the Company.

(b) You can move to Labour Court if you have worked for more than 3-years and have incurred a heavy financial loss of PF (if not remitted by the Company to EPFO or Gratuity (if worked for 5-or-more years) or any other dues outstanding for more than a year.

(c) As you have worked just for 8-months, it is not at all good or advisable to move to labour court for your future.

(d) To the extent possible, avoid disputes with any Company you work with, why because, when you search for jobs with another company, most of the companies conduct 'Antecedent Verification' i.e. verifying about the candidates who have applied for the job in their company. They might call the HR Department/Current Reporting Seniors to know about the candidate and/or write mail to get their feedback.

(e) Let us assume, they do not conduct any 'Antecedent Verification' and you get offer from another company. The new employer will ask for copies of documents which might include your Appointment Letter, Copy of Latest Pay-Slips, Confirmation Letter, Relieving Letter, NO Dues Certificate etc. You will have to approach your current employer for some of the documents, especially Relieving Letter.

If you had not had good relationship with the Current Employer, it will be much difficult for you to get even a Relieving Letter from the past employer(s) & join a new company. Copy of which all documents will be demanded by new employer depends upon its HR Policy/Nature of Work.

(f) Also please note, if the new employer comes to know that you had moved to Labour Court against your past employer, current employer will start enquiring about the same from you and / or from your past employer. From then, problems will start for you from the current employer also which can be (some illustrative examples): Transferring you to some other department, Laying you Off, Withdrawing Increments/Bonus etc.

In future, when you join a new company, ask for an Appointment Letter (even if it is a small company).

I hope I have clarified your doubt(s).

All the BEST for Your Bright Future.

Ans: Hello.
Whatever you are saying is just shocking. The track record of TCS is not like that, as you described in your question. It would be better to contact TCS again and ask them when they will give on boarding letter. It is not clear from your query whether your son had done some correspondence with TCS or not related to the job offered. It is also not clear which two exams he appeared in. If not selected in a campus interview, searching for a job might be tedious but not so difficult. Ask your son to post a strong resume on the LinkedIn portal and remain in touch with his seniors. Please visit the websites of renowned companies daily to search for vacancies. There are many job-offering portals where he can register his name. Please ask the college placement division for any placement opportunities.
Wishing the best of luck for his bright future.

If satisfied, please like and follow me.
If dissatisfied with the reply, please ask again without hesitation.
Thanks.

Ans: Yes. Certainly it was a wrong decision. A bird in hand is worth than two birds in bush. She must have accepted the offer of Tech Mahindra, After selection why TCS is again taking test? This is not ethical. But now if she approaches Tech Mahindra probably she won't get a response. So try elsewhere. Mind that DECISION DECIDES DESTINY. If your decision is wrong you are bound to fail. So no more lamenting over the spilt milk. In future take correct decision. Secondly her GPA is too high. Many times organizations don't select very high GPA candidates, because their stability becomes a question mark. Due to very high GPA they never become satisfied with any job. They always think they are underpaid and deserve more. Please keep one thing in mind once you join a job your GPA becomes dead, then your performance will decide your future prospects. Just follow me. Best of luck to her. GOD BLESS HER. Professor................:)

Ans: Hello Arjun
1. There must be someone officiating as HR. Try to contact them
2. If required, you may speak to the Director directly since he/she gave the confirmation
3. If possible, you may personally visit the office & meet the relevant person
All the Best !!

Ans: Wait till JoSAA Round 6 is over

See if any seat is allotted (even in lower branches/NITs).

Register for CSAB Special Round (usually opens around end of July)

Keep all branches open, even lower branches.

Prioritize: Government seats > Lower branch > Remote location

Avoid costly private universities unless 100% scholarships (since budget is a concern)
