The company further said in the press release, “With the aim of helping youth rebuild their livelihoods and provide pathways to employment, TCS has included special programs that focus on training the youth in Quantitative Aptitude, Business Communication Skills, Programming, and Domain Skills.  Right from training to finding employment, TCS is supporting the candidates and grooming them for the careers of tomorrow. Nominated members from these bereaved families are included in the ongoing virtual Y.E.P batches across the country,”

“TCS is training participating youths specifically on Quantitative Aptitude, Business Communication Skills, Programming and Domain Skills. After receiving this specialized training and mentorship, we will also be supporting them in finding employment opportunities. We have received 1384 nominations, who are being supported by 700+ TCS associates in their learning and employment journey,’ It said.

Over 80% of the nominees are from the states of Maharashtra, West Bengal, Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, Telangana, Uttar Pradesh and Karnataka. The employees are also nominating suitable candidate to join the program, who are currently struggling due to the impact of this pandemic. Early days into the initiative, TCS has received over 1,300 nominations, of which over 85% were either friends or relatives of the employees.” It added.
