Hello everyone, I recently participated in the TCS Ignite 2025 hiring process and wanted to share my experience. Hopefully, this helps aspirants who are preparing!

Note: As per my knowledge, the TCS Ignite exam is conducted twice a year — first in February and again in June . So, if you miss the first chance, do keep an eye out for the second. I appeared in the June 2025 round, and here’s my timeline:

Round 1 Online Test Date: 14th June 2025 Mode: In-center, via TCS iON platform Sections: Numerical Ability Verbal Ability Reasoning Ability (Optional) Coding section – languages included C, C++, Java, Python

Round 2 Documentation Check Date: 7th July 2025 Process: Required to visit a TCS Center and verify academic records (10th, 12th, graduation mark sheets), government ID proof, and application form.

Round 3 Interview Date: 8th July 2025 Duration: I was in the 1 PM batch, but my interview started around 5 PM — so be prepared for delays. Panel: HR, MR, and TR. Some questions asked: Tell me about yourself. Which technical language do you prefer? (I said Python – they asked about the latest Python version). Write a simple program on paper (e.g., swapping numbers without using a temporary variable). Are you comfortable relocating? Are your parents comfortable with it? Are you comfortable working night shifts? Offer Letter Date: August 2025 I first received an email to submit a list of documents. After successful verification, I got my offer letter. In my case, I received it within 3 days, but this timeline may vary depending on the HR assigned to you. Background Verification (BGV) After the offer letter, the next step was BGV through the TCS NextStep portal. This involves uploading documents for verification such as academic records, government IDs, and other required proofs. Once BGV is cleared, the joining letter will be issued (timeline not fixed). That’s my journey with TCS Ignite 2025 so far. I hope this helps future candidates preparing for the same. Best of luck!
