January 21, 2018 09:50 pm | Updated 09:50 pm IST - New Delhi

Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) hired more than 20% of its recruits in the last one year in international markets as part of its “localisation initiatives.”

In the October-December 2017 quarter alone, the firm recruited almost 3,000 people from outside India.

“Overall, in the last 12 months, we have recruited 59,700 employees, which includes 12,700 outside India, a good indicator of how our localisation initiatives are progressing,” CEO & MD Rajesh Gopinathan said at a recent investor call. He added that the company had “always prided ourselves in our ability to attract and retain diverse talent.”
