18 DECEMBER 2012
It was
a hectic schedule starting from 7:30 AM in the morning and ending at 7 PM in
the evening and the most unfortunate thing is that we were got to the campus by
6:30 PM in the morning L.
Even the canteen was not opened by that time.
As
usual session started with a delay of half an hour @ 8AM with a small task to
make a friend with certain conditions(15mins time is given). He/She should not
be known to u before and should not be from same state or hostel and we must be
knowing whether why he/she joined TCS. I got two friends, one is from
Jabalpur(Madhya Pradesh) and one more is from Banglore(Karnataka). It was nice
talking with them.
Next
task is that all 288 ppl of our batch were divided into 10 groups and a topic (Obviously
regarding TCS) was given to all of us. One lucky J
member among the group will be called for a speech delivery of 3minutes. And
he/she also need to tell the names of entire team members(28members) + 1 name
of the friend whom he/she had made earlier. This session was however not
conducted it was a nice platform for us to interact with each other.
Rest of
the day went with seminars, knowing about TCS and its policies, do’s and do not’s.
Last session was interesting as it is where the announcement of base location
will be done. 288 ppl were divided into 9 learning groups(LG’s). Each group
will be given training on different platforms. Platforms available here for our
batch are Java, MS .Net, Unix/C++, BIPM and Java Testing. I was given MS .Net (as
I prayed for) with 2nd shift. There will be 2 shifts from morning 7
to 1:45 and 2:15 to 9 PM (Including Breaks). Only 2 groups got morning shifts
and shifts can be changed depending on their requirements. And last but not
least our base location(location after training) I got Banglore as per my
Preference order. More than 90% of the ppl got their base locations as per
their wish. Fortunately our session ended at 5:30 PM and we could move out (not
everyday chance to go early).
Thus
the day ended happily with small shopping after the duty J Will be coming back
with more of my experiences soon… Bye bye
congrats
