Can I apply in TCS after the stint in Infosys

How to apply in TCS for lateral employees

Some people ask that they have made their profile on Naukri.com but they have not received a call from reputed companies like TCS and Wipro. What's the reason?

Now companies are moving from Naukri.com to LinkedIn, so make sure to have a good LinkedIn profile as well so that you can apply for jobs from there. 

If you want to keep it old way, then update/visit your Naukri profile daily to get a call from HRs of TCS or Wipro. 

The best way is to consider uploading your profile in TCS/Wipro career portal and you may get call once they get requirements for your skill set.

Friends in TCS may also refer you for some special/scheduled walk-ins.

Infosys' Non-Compete Clause

The clause restricts an employee from accepting any employment letter from a named competitor of Infosys such as TCS, Accenture, Cognizant, IBM and Wipro for a period of 6 months after leaving their jobs in Infosys. 

An employee shall not accept for six months an employment offer from "named competitors" such as TCS, Wipro and HCL Technologies, among others if the new job involves working with a client with whom the employee has worked in the preceding 12 months during his stint at Infosys."

As per law

1) Employees can resign and join any competitors. i.e. employee from Infosys can join Wipro or vice versa. Company cannot restrain the employees from joining the competitors. 

2) Under section 27 of the Indian Contract Act any Agreement in restraint of trade is void.

The truth of Infosys' Non-Compete Clause

The company’s employee agreement states that an employee shall not accept for 6 months an employment offer from “named competitors” such as Tata Consultancy Services, Wipro and HCL Technologies among others if the new job involves working with a client with whom the employee has previously worked with in the preceding 12 months during their stint at Infosys.

Does Infosys blacklist employees?

If you do not follow the company policies, Infosys might blacklist you. This happens rarely. So, do not worry.

Who pays more TCS or Infosys?

Again it depends on the role you are applying for. But for most of the roles TCS may provide extra benefits.
