I gave TCS NQT on 10 April.

First interview mail came on 26 April for 28 April, then it got postponed .

After that, I got another mail on 5 May and finally gave interview on 7 May at TCS Pune.

It’s been many days now but still no Document Verification mail/update.

Some people who interviewed around late April are also saying they haven’t received anything yet.

Is TCS slowing down hiring/onboarding currently?

Anyone from Pune or 2026 batch facing same delay?

How much time does DV usually take after interview?

I gave the TCS NQT exam on 10 April. Then on 26 April, I received my first interview mail saying my interview was scheduled for 28 April. But on 27 April, I got another mail saying the interview was postponed.

Later, on 5 May, I received a new mail saying my interview was scheduled for 7 May at TCS Pune. It was for the Prime role and mainly focused on Core Java.

My interview started around 5 PM, and honestly the panel looked quite tired because they were continuously checking the time during the interview. Still, they spent a lot of time discussing my final year project. Initially, they didn’t fully understand the exact idea, so they kept asking follow-up questions. After around 30–35 minutes of discussion, I was finally able to explain the project properly and they seemed satisfied.

They also gave me a paper and asked me to write code. I completed it properly.

Then they asked:

Java exception handling concepts

Write a Java program using exception handling to check whether a number or string is a palindrome or not

I wrote the code correctly and explained it properly as well.

Overall, only 2–3 major technical questions were asked, and the interview lasted around 50 minutes. I would say my accuracy/confidence level for the in-depth questions was around 90% because I had prepared those topics very well.

Now I’m confused about what to expect:

Do I have a good chance for Prime?

Could they move me to Digital instead?

Or are there still chances of rejection?

Also, how long does TCS usually take to declare results after the interview?

Would appreciate hearing experiences from others who recently attended TCS Prime/Digital interviews.
