It is one of the biggest industries and there is no doubt about it. Though there are a few fears and concerns regarding the jobs as the big players in the tech sector are sacking the employees, the craze for IT jobs is still intact and it is among the dream jobs of many.

Given the perks of the jobs, people prefer the job. The respect the IT employees get is different. However, there are a few allegations that employees take the wrong route to get the jobs. One such alleged scam was unearthed with as many as 16 employees losing their jobs.

Going into details, TCS which is one of the leading IT giants in the country is said to have unearthed a Recruitment Scam under which money was taken in return for jobs. As many as 19 employees were found in connection with this.

It is said that out of the 19 employees, 16 employees were removed while three employees were shifted from the resource management wing. Not just that, six vendors were also found to be having a role in this and they are barred from any further business.

The alleged scam came to light earlier this year weeks after the new chief executive took over the big position. This made the management to swing into action and launch an inquiry. As a result, the alleged scam came to light. However, no key managerial personnel in the company are involved with this.

The management said that it will take all the measures to see that such things won't repeat in the future and said that it will not tolerate any sort of unethical conduct. The recruitment scam came to light when the company said it would recruit as many as 40,000 employees in the financial year.
