Not super easy, is the short answer. I think the U.K. firm isn't aggressively hiring, so you'd need a partner over there to advocate for you. Maybe your US partner could help? Second issue is the moving cost. If you're willing to pay for the move yourself (vs having the firm pay for the move), it will likely be easier to get approval. Finally I have no idea what the visa situation is in the U.K. right now, but I expect it'll be challenging given the Brexit uncertainty. If you can get a partner over there to fight for you, though, it can probably happen.

Depends on your BU.

Brexit definitely adds an additional layer of complexity to the decision. I have another year before either might need to make the move but I need to plan in advance and have those discussions with the partner now to figure out the logistics

Good luck mate!

Hello Fishes,

Any idea when we get relieving letter/service certificate from TCS?

My LWD was 16th September and I received FNF 10 days before. Also got initial release letter on my LWD.

I see so many issues in this organisation.
When I joined TCS after 5 days of joining they used to mail me every week for 5 continuous weeks and asked me every time for previous organisation relieving letter.
But they themselves don’t share it and delay a lot.


Anyone please advise.
