"From an improvement point of view, we have been telling institutes that communications and soft skills are something that can be looked at... Which will make people a bit more ready," executive vice-president and global head for human resources Ajoy Mukherjee told PTI.
He, however, said TCS, which is arguably one of the biggest hirers at the country's campuses and has over 3.13 lakh headcounts already, is contended with the technical skills of the freshers which it hires.
Mukherjee said the company plans to give offers to 35,000 freshers from 350-400 institutes during FY16, which is 10,000 more than the ones for FY15.
He said the company conducts a dialogue with the heads of the institutes it gives offers and inform them of the need to work on the students' soft skills.
After declaring a 13.2 per cent growth for the July-September quarter profit at Rs 5,244 crore, TCS chief executive and managing director N Chandrasekaran had said that he was bullish about 2015-16.
