Hello Friends, The job location is an important factor and we all keep this in mind at the very first while applying for a job. Our job life is much affected by the location where we do the job.

Hello Friends, Women Empowerment in TCS Speaking Volumes Won't Serve the Cause , Making Videos won't change the reality, Promoting women on television shows just for the sake of TRP won't lead to " Women Empowerment " !!! I know India is fast developing into a Super power on the Global stage or some may even argue that, it has already made its mark on the World Map, but while Women in other Countries walk head to head or may be ahead than their Male counterparts, Women in India are still not given the same respect and stature that they deeply deserve , why ????
