TCS IGNITE OPEN TEST HACK


At first this is not actually a hack. I found it accidentally as their website is full of bugs Smile with tongue out .

And proceed in your own risk.

Step 1: Hope their server is up and running as their server always crashes. If the website is responding well now it’s time to move to the step 2.

Step 2: At first, do not use IE. Use Mozilla or any other browser. My preference is Chrome as it is least compatible with the site. As for IE u will be stuck in full screen mode.

Step 3: Download some software to capture screenshot easily. I used the inbuilt Snipping Tool provided with windows 7.\

Step 4: Login at the time u booked your slot.

Step 5: Browse through the questions and take screenshot of every question and answers. There are 14 Questions so it would not be a problem, takes only 4-5minutes depending on your speed and save all screenshots in a quickly accessible folder.

Step 6: Now disconnect and reconnect your internet connection and try to change the current question or change the section. Now u will be prompted informing you that your session has expired. Now you are done. Take your time and solve the questions one by one but remember to login before your time runs out.

Time Work to be done
7.00 Slot time starts login
7.05 u saved all questions and closed your session
7.50 login and get 50 minute more
8.00 Actual test finis time
8.50 Your test finishes at this time

Now you see you actually got more then 90minutes for your test.

Another Piece of Advice: Try to book slots at the same time your friends booked. The main advantage is your questions will be same just change of digits and you know how to distribute workload Winking smile

  1. are you sure this will work? because, i’m having my tcs ignite exam tomorrow, and i don’t want to take any chance……! i’m not doubting you, its a great work you’ve done….!

    • YES, this worked for two of my friends also and don’t hesitate as u can retake the exam booking another slot on same day or another day.. so if u get bad marks then u can take the test again. I took 3times today .. 12pm , 2pm helped two friends at 4pm then again at 6pm πŸ˜› … u can retake as long as there are slots available πŸ™‚ πŸ˜€

    • Try it. Cz i also faced the session expired msg and after login again i got extra time. Cz session will expired if you idle on that page, but you will be prompted only then when you will try to do somthing on the expired session. So the time from when your session is expired you will not loss that. So make your session expired and got benefit of that. Though it should not be in a good website. But TCS forgot to do that or may be failed to do that. πŸ˜› πŸ˜›

  2. @mepragyan i have selected for TCS ignite final round interview…..they have send me an interview card….can you please tell me how many rounds are there in ignite final round interview????is there only technical and HR?or other rounds like GD???they have given me a date which is 27/04/2012….so if you tell me about their process then i will be very helpful for me….please reply…thanks in advanced….

    • Me too selected for 26th and have to go to Rajarhat πŸ˜€ . I have no idea about the rounds cause this is my first interview too. But I think there would be at least two rounds one is Technical and other is HR. No Idea about GD as many IT companies recruiting for development and testing don’t have GD Round.

  3. i have my interview on 9th may …so may u please post info about ur experience …like what kind of question n rounds were there…please reply …thanks,….and best of luck all 4 there interview…

    • it depends.. there will be two rounds technical and HR.. I faced my interview in Guwahati..where they didnt asked any tech questions… jst they asked HR questions.. so go and gv ur best.. the selection will be based on the basis of mrks obtained in open test… so best of luck….

  4. hey i have interview on 10th may 2012,those who have already attended the interview pls share ur experience ,it would be helpful for me

  5. My interview went well. The TCS guys were very helpful. There was 2 rounds at first Technical where i was asked various questions about C,C++,OS, DBMS. Then there were HR round. HR asked me about my hobbies, blogs etc. It was a like a discussion rather than formal interview.

    • Interview card for open ignite is come for me….

      My interview date is cming 25

      Please tell me about more experience…..

      Which area they are mostly expected ?

      Only languages is enough or they h/w network and…so on.

      This is the one of the elimination round or not

  6. mepragyan: can you help on the technical round please and what about the joinings ? When are you getting it ?

    • I don’t know if i am selected. I think they will inform after all interview finishes. Actually i have peeped into one technical hr’s pc when he went to drink water. The whole process is online and all assesments/marks are submitted to ignite website. So i think this is kind of large entrance test and no seat qouta in specific zone. People will be automatically selected by total marks. And they are also checking marks of board xams. So, i think there are also few marks upon results in 10, 10+2 and graduation.

      And yes the interview is the elimination round. There is no written test but the hr may give u blank sheet and u may get asked to write code segment or do some maths. But the interview is easier than the open test. They just want to test ur fundamental concepts upon your stream.

      • Hi pragyan mine interview date is 15th may what type of question they asked in HR round and how many time they take in TR & HR round

  7. hey guys.. dnt ask for experiences.. coz it depends upon the interviewer.. In guwahati not a single question was asked from technical Hr.. whereas In kolkata there was a bunch of tough techinical questions.. so jst prepare urself…. they will just look at ur analytical skilss… i,e ur open test marks…..
    if u got more then 8 in ur open test… u have lots of chance of being selected…. I had aleady faced my interview in Guwahati and my friends faced it in kolkata.. so I know the proper and the best info… hope we all get selected and best of luck to all….:)

    • Hey Swati … All d best for ur interview.. Mine is on 10th of june in kolkata. There are just two rounds – Technical and HR as far as i know.. Me too a bit tensed. Dunno wats gonna happen on 10th. I am preparing with just my basics.. Try to remain cool and u will surely crack.. Hope 9th and 10th goes rocking for all of us πŸ™‚

  24. Hi guyz.. I have an interview on 5th june.. plz give some suggestions for me.. but i didn’t finished any one of the open challenge….

  25. Hi guyz.. I have an interview on 5th june.. plz give some suggestions for me.. but i didn’t finished any one of the open challenge….

    • Same here…I too have an interview on 5th june and didnt submit the open challenge yet..open challenge is not compulsory..so don’t worry.

    • Hi friends,all the best for ur interview.I am from Coimbatore,I received my interview card on 26th of may.Try to any positivly,ur English communication should be good,im having some personal experience abt that.

  26. @siva : Heard there will be two rounds..technical and HR …My interview location is chennai one..thoraipakkam….what about yours?

      • is open lab challenge compulsory? i haven’t submitted any of those..will it be a problem?

      • they may ask you from os and dbms also..so be prepared…If they tell you to write the program in C or C++ you have to write it..so better be prepared well…

    • I have not submitted any open lab challenge bt they are asking for a hard copy of the same…wt to do..??plz hlp..

      • Hi guys,i too dnt have open challenge hard copy,I spoke wit HR she asks to solve the open challenge again and asks to bring for an interview,And my advice is,”if HR ask u to write a program in c or c++,just tell them’I am feeling comfortable in Java or what ever language u feel comfortable’ they want u to speak openly,here they can see ur confident level.surely they will appreciate you.also pls share ur experience,.ALL THE BEST MY FRIENDS,my interview is on 7th June at Coimbatore,.

      • Guys my Interview was there on 18th may.It went good.TCS ppl are very friendly.Just b confident and njoy it!!! ALL THE BEST frendz!!!

  27. Guys they are telling to write programs..they are asking questions based on your stream..and open lab challenge need to be submitted after the interview..but not compulsory to carry for the interview…

      • They asked me to write a program to print 1st 10numbers in C, C++, and java..its important to note that they asked these in HR round…In technical round they asked from theories like OS,DBMS then purpose oracle and so on…So better go well prepared and read all your major subjects basics..An practice some programs..they even tell you to explain the programs that you have written…

  28. I’ve from BCS
    the weird thing about interview was dat the HR guy asked me those few questions and in tech interview the did not even asked me a single question regarding my field……and later on when i asked my friend who had interview later on said that the tech interview guy screwed him up

    I guess I was lucky :p

  29. Please tell me after how many days the result will declared???.. Today I went for my interview. The location was Kolkata. Please reply.

    • Arjitha:I am also looking for my result date.I send an email to Chennai.gnite,but they dnt reply.I think it will declare within this month.how was ur interview?hav u answered all the question?I didn’t answer for two tech questions,i think i wont get select.

    • till now i am not received any mail from tcs…………… but many of friend from bhubaneswar those who got selected also not selected they got mail yesterday………

  36. I received a congratulation email from the team ignite on this Saturday that I have completed all the steps of the IGnite process but it is not the result.I mean the candidates who will be selected will receive a separate email . And i dont think i will be selected coz my interview was not so good.,. 😦 In my email it was stated that the offer letter generation is still in process. I don’t knw wats gonna happen.. probably they will publish the result soon and will intimate the selected candidates via email. me tensed,.. if any one of u get any sort of email please let us knw.. Till then let us keep our fingers crossed… Wish good luck to all of u..

  37. i think many people got congratulation email………i thing they got selected………
    i thing this is first phase of result…….. they are very soon get there offer letter…………….i am very confused am i selected or not……..it is difficult for me wait monday…… because tomorrow is holiday

      • i face same problem. i call him twice……..but its dificult for me to understand ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,yar

      • @ mit i think 1000 people got selected…………. u have any idea that tcs takes how much students………………

      • i think they take 1000 students in 1 batch,, so even if we are selected,,, we will have to wait for the second batch in Jan,, 😦
        and try to call Debayan with some other number,, if he is in mood, surly will suggest something useful,, and he is from Kolkata,, πŸ˜€ i will also try to call him and let you know if i found something useful,,

      • If so many students are already selected from 1000 student…then what should i take it as …. i got call from tcs saying that complete ur application for offer letter even though it was filled…m really tensed now 😦

  54. why u call this person that mensoned his name at our admit card
    Contact Person : Debayan Chandra
    Contact Number : 8939162882

    • every group have a HR who is there to help you if you have any kind of difficulty in selection process,, i have called him many times, he always keeps saying to send a mail to chennai.ig… , and yes, this guy have some problem with his mobiles speaker,, sometimes it is very difficult to understand what he is saying,,

      you should call him about this issue,,

  55. Actually my one friend is a MCA final year student and he is selected But he also have not received any mail from TCS ignite. That is why I am asking.

  56. anyone from pune or does anyone has friends in pune who got offer letter?
    coz no one here whom I know has recieved the offer letter until now
    plz reply

    • Hi frnds,my friend is doing MCA in sastra university,he said all the students who attented interview will get their offer letter,what ever u r saying 1000 students or 500 students are one batch is wrong,They ll select the students onnly by ignite rank.Hope for the best.Good luck

  57. @ Amar i havent got my joining letter yaar…but i have got ol the copies of paper works and everything given in the announcement.i was seeing the Tcs ignite joinee page in fb n was surprised to know that some candidates havent got their offer letter but directly got their joining…..was that a miracle or the mistake of the employees i dont know…..sara josh chala gaya uske baad….dmag v kaam nei karraha he…

    • @Riya: hey.. U knw yesterday I got to know that one of the candidate got her joining letter and the email got dropped in her spam box.. She dint checked it so long and she got to knw yesterday that her joining is on 19th. So pls keep checking ur spam box too. u never knw when and where the email would drop.. IF u dont get , dont worry, they will surely send u the joining letter.. All the best.. πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚

  58. @shayak hav u got ur joining????in next step my last line is ilp eligible m seeing dat same thing frm june 24….and my brain bcoms clumzy wen i see PEO site.i hav send thousand mails to chennai ignite but its of no vain none of my mails are answered….bohut gussa arahahe….upar se wo fb ka page v dekh ke sardard horahahe k kya horahahe ye sab…i know dat who hav got offer wud definately get their der joining but its their duty na to clarify that whether july batch is full whether the remaining candidates will b on next batch etc etc jisko offer mila he unko joining nei milta jinko nei mila he unko milgaya…mere jese jitne v honge hum sabko hardin tension hota he k uska aagaya mera q nei aya kuch gadbad to nei hua na…etc etc thousand stupid things cums to mind…patahe.Ek bar clarify kardenge to hum v tension free hoke bethenge par nei….evenif patahe shanti se kuch padh v nei pati…computer science honours tha mera par iss chakaar me kuch v yaad nei aarahahe..sab naya lagrahahe…

    • hmmm dats tru… i can understand ur curiosity.. mera bhi next step me status ILP eligible tak hi dikha rha hai.. And mujhe joining mail 2nd july ko mila hai.. aur haan for any queries mail to ilp.support@tcs.com kyunki mera bhi jo queries tha maine iss mail id pe bheja tha and they replied evrytym..pta ha wo chennai.ignite@tcs .com never replies so try the ilp email id.. and yes baat shi hai, dey must have clarified.. pta hai one of my frnds got offer letter on 24th june along wid me, but did not recv his joining letter yet… i can only say to you dat dont worry.. but seriously bahot tension hota hai agar kuch ko joining mil rha hai aur kuch ko nhi… anyways try to contact the ilp support by email or their toll free number.. its better u mail them.. I wish u get ur joining letter soon..

      • thanx buddy…. πŸ™‚ hope kar kar ke koi hope v nazar nei arahahe…feeling frustrated….ne wez leave it gudluck for ur new life…..god bless u πŸ™‚

  59. CONGRATS @ BALA KRISHNAN……………. ANY IDEA ABOUT REST OF THE PEOPLE THOSE ARE NOT SELECTED YET,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

  60. @Senthilvel Balraj
    so you are saying that everyone will get offer letter in coming days?
    and if by any chance do u knw how the ignite ranking system works?
    btw i had got 52% in 12th but both of my interviews were awesome, do you think I have a chance receiving offer letter?

    P.S: I know I’m asking too many questions but I’ll be really grateful if you could help me out

      • thank you priscy

        actually I haven’t even got a call until now from tcs so I’m worried about receiving it now coz I’ve only applied for tcs until now

        I’ve heard that most of the people get selected who have given interview, is it true?

      • ohhk…. i have no idea abt dat… I got my offer letter but dint get any joining details…also after getting the offer letter I got a call frm TCS asking if I accepted d offer letter and I said yes.. but still dint get ny furthr mail !!

  61. @Amit pandey: I also got call from 044-6616-8497 on 28th June(Friday) around 10 in the morning, and I also missed the call. and I dont know that for what purpose the call was. did u have any word with HRs? what did they say??

      • @Amit Pandey: I hav called on that no. more than 20 times but different different persons received the call and they all replied that they dont know that for what purpose I was being called. That is why I am very tensed. If you had any word with HR then tell me that what did they say?

      • Hi friends,My status in next step portal is Application Received.What does that mean?but I didnt received any call or mail.In Next Step portal out of 5 3 columns were filled.I lost many oppurtuunity from many companies.I dont know wat to do.I am waiting more than a month but it should be worth ful one or it is waste

  64. @Surya: do you have any idea that how much time it will take to complete the selection process of ignite? becoz I have not taken admission any where and if I am not selected then my one year will be spoiled. they should inform us that whether the candidate is selected or not.

  65. anyone of you whom tcs guys had called on 28th june(friday) and told them that they are selected but due to some technical reason their offer letter is not sent and their offer letter is in process, anyone of you got offer letter????

      Today morning i found changes in my next step portal.Please check it and can i know what does it mean.M totally confused.
      My DT ref number is: DT20131886516

      to me
      Hello,

      Offer letters to selected candidates will be sent in another five working days. Anyone
      who does not receive any communication from us till Sep-10-2013 can assume that
      he/she is not selected.

      Thank you
      Team Ignite

  82. @kavita: do u remember that on which date your status was changed?? can u share the help line no on which u made contact with them..

    • yeah…i checked on 30th august afternoon but there were no such changes and den i directly checked on 31st august morning near by 10.00 am …dat tym i saw changes on my next step…..

      and yeah….

      take this no….. and let me knw if u get any info plz
      04466168512,499,497,487

  83. did anyone get offer lettr for batch 2?? bcoz they were told that they will send the offer lettr to the selected candidate till august last.

  84. how many of you guys found change in your application status, is there everyone getting the same change, like “candidate batched’ and ‘Hall ticket generated’? if everyone is getting the same change in your status then it must be an error which is generated in TCS reruitment system, it doesn’t indicate that the candidate who found there status ‘batched’ or ‘hall ticket generated’ are selected. becoz only in my friend circle i know more than 20 candidate who got this type of changes…

    • you have to log in to your tcs ignite profile every day, join all the courses, watch videos, answer quiz, and also answer the questions given for the video tutorial. all these activities will give you some points, you just need to collect them in a large amount.
