TCS Aspire
Key to your Early Joining
After the placement drive is over and selection process is complete, results will be announced generally on the same day or on the next working day. Since all the process is online, you will get an email from TCS congratulating you on your selection. Before celebrating please make sure that you get this conformation email, otherwise your friends will bankrupt you for nothing :)
Congratulations for being selected in the campus placement drive.( If you are not selected don't loose heart there are still
off campus drives available if you wish to join the company )
And now you are probably thinking what's the next stage of your professional career ? Or may be you already heard about one of the best pre training course of I.T. industry - The Aspire.
Once you are selected the next time you log in to nextstep portal, you will have Aspire option available. But remember this may be possible that Aspire take some time before appearing on your ID. This depends on many reasons and if you are placed in on campus drive you may have to wait for 1 or 2 months before you can attempt it. So don't worry if you are not seeing it now, most of your friends will not be able able to see it either. So just relax and enjoy your success for now.
Once it is available on your nextstep ID you can see that what exactly it is.
In my opinion Aspire is course designed to prepare you for your I.T. career. Since TCS select students from many streams like engineering, MCA, management and so on, Technical knowledge of these students are not on the same level and sometimes ( because of our education system of colleges ) it is below the industry acceptance level.
Therefore aspire focuses on bringing your knowledge level to a certain minimum level.
It is mandatory to complete aspire before joining because of 3 main and critically important reasons -
1. If you are from non I.T. background and don't know anything about computers, coding, JAVA, C/C++ etc you won't survive in I.T. industry for long, in fact if you are not interested in learning I suggest you won't join an I.T. company. Aspire will help you build basics about these things.
2. As for now your joining date ( if you are not in the 5 toppers of your branch ) will depend entirely on your Aspire score. Each time you attempt it you will score a certain points ( miles ). If your score is more than the cutoff miles of that time you will get joining otherwise you can reset your course and attempt it again. So if you want an early joining you should complete your aspire carefully and seriously.
Note - Even if you don't attempt the Aspire they will send you joining letter at end of the placement session but I won't suggest it because of the I.R.A.
3. Before you can join the I.L.P. you have to pass 2 Initial Readiness Assessment Tests ( I.R.A.), and all the questions there will be asked from the Aspire. If you fail in I.R.A. they will reschedule ( postpone ) your joining. So it's better you attempt and learn it thoroughly.
