********I am just a fresher like u. so plz don’t forward your cv to any of my

Guys probably u must be knowing that i was featured in the final select list of Cognizant
on dec 23rd 2004 kolkata where I topped the list. Till now i didn't get the offer letter (and
probably i wont) just because i applied within 12 months. The Cognizant HR said to me
that their rule is not to apply within 12 months and this rule has NEVER EVER violated.
Ha-ha-ha-ha u guys know the truth 'cause there are 1000 of examples right here n
kolkata who applied b4 me and r still working in cts kolkata. The final results were
declared on 28th and on 4th evening around 38 were rejected the offer letter due to.........
So guys I think “jo hotha hai bhale ke liye hotha hai” like one of frnds wrote to me (after
cts incident everybody was shocked)
Preethi from chennai wrote 2 me “Pls dont worri.. God has felt tht u deserve somethng
better than cts. cts is never the best...... so u wl get into somethng realy good. If u r
confident on u, n ur wrk a day wil come, tht cts wl come behind u and ask u to join there.
Im nt kidding........ pretty serious.. I look forward ur mail to the groups soon tht u r

placed in a gud cmpny better than cts” (****thanks preethi ur words came true tcs
being Asia’s no 1 in IT is better than any other organisation******)
I hope u had liked my resource because this is 100% authentic and complete in all
respects. This is the greatest tcs resource u can find in any yahoo group. So guys get the
maximum out of it if u r serious abt career in tcs. I got the offer letter today. Next will be
training(possibly trivandam) and allotment of project, permanent posting………………
Thanks to moderator of this group, all active members who indirectly helped me a lot,
God and of course to myself for being so much confident…………………………..
Best of luck direct Dil Se ……………
