Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), India’s leading IT company, has been awarded the title of Best Employer Brand in the Corporate Sector at the LinkedIn Talent Awards 2024. This recognition highlights the company’s dedication to creating a workplace that fosters innovation, engagement, and readiness for the future, supporting its workforce of over 600,000 employees in 55 countries.
The award, in the large enterprise category, underscores TCS’ success in connecting with top talent and promoting its employer brand through LinkedIn's talent solutions. The company has been able to attract skilled professionals while amplifying its presence in the competitive job market.
TCS has consistently led in the talent space, maintaining its spot at the top of LinkedIn’s "Top Companies to Work for in India" list for four consecutive years. Each year, it ranks among the Top 25 workplaces in the country, demonstrating its commitment to providing an exceptional work environment.
The company has also embraced AI-focused learning and employee engagement initiatives to revolutionize workforce development. Milind Lakkad, Chief Human Resources Officer at TCS, said, “This recognition by LinkedIn is a testament to our efforts to create a workplace where employees feel valued and empowered. It strengthens TCS’ position as an employer of choice both in India and globally. As we look to attract and retain the next generation of talent, our focus will remain on enhancing the employee experience and embracing the future of work through technologies like Gen AI.”
Earlier this year, TCS was named a Global Top Employer for 2024, marking the ninth consecutive year it has received this honor. It is also recognized as a top employer in 32 countries and regions, including key markets such as Europe, the UK, North America, and Southeast Asia.
Abhinav Kumar, Chief Marketing Officer at TCS, commented, “Our promise to clients is to deliver the best talent in the industry, creating long-term relationships based on trust, excellence, and high performance. Our employer brand plays a key role in this, and we work with partners like LinkedIn to showcase what we offer to potential talent—career opportunities, cutting-edge technology projects, and the chance to make an impact in the communities we serve.”
In addition to this award, TCS has seen a significant rise in its digital presence, with its LinkedIn following surpassing 16 million. The company gained 2.4 million new followers in 2024 alone, reflecting its growing appeal to job seekers.
TCS has also improved its recruitment strategies through initiatives such as the TCS National Qualifier Test (NQT) and the TCS CodeVita programming competition. These efforts, along with strong partnerships with top universities, have been key in expanding its talent pool.
