To address the growing demand for skilled tech professionals in the Indian job market, Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) has launched a new bonus-based hiring initiative. Under the Quick Joiner Incentive Plan, vendors will receive a ₹40,000 bonus for each senior professional who joins the company within 30 days of accepting the offer. The ₹40,000 vendor bonus is in addition to the standard recruitment fees, making the opportunity more financially rewarding while setting clear, measurable targets for staffing agencies.
However, there is also one condition: the bonus is recoverable if the candidate leaves the company within six months. This clause aligns with TCS’s focus on building a stable and long-term workforce.
TCS’s new initiative is part of its broader expansion strategy and follows major billion-dollar deals, including its outsourcing agreement with British insurer Aviva. In response to growing demand in the IT sector, the company is ramping up hiring, bringing in both fresh graduates and specialized talent.
TCS has also redirected its hiring focus toward niche skill sets such as:
- Microsoft Teams, M365, and SharePoint development
- Cloud-native application engineering
- Endpoint security and network protection
- AI-driven enterprise platforms and solutions
This new initiative will help TCS speed up the hiring cycle while encouraging vendors to focus on long-term hires. By linking payments to candidate retention, it ensures better outcomes for both the company and its recruitment partners.
