Use Python, Java, C, C++ or JavaScript. These are general programming scenarios, including for tracks whose subject MCQs cover SQL or another vendor tool. Native SQL, C#, Kotlin, Apex or ABAP execution is not included.

Results need review
- Complete the readiness and consent checks on a laptop or desktop.
- Answer independently. Camera/microphone recordings and security events support review under the privacy notice.
- An evaluator validates the assessment; flags require evidence review.
- Eligible documents are approved and released to your account. Confirmed violations may lead to disqualification with a recorded reason.
Role/student interview eligibility starts at a validated score of 75%. This is a TALNORO evaluation interview, not a promised employer interview. Skill outcomes use the bands Average (below 50%), Good (50%–75%) and Excellent (above 75%).
TALNORO certificates record the stated assessment outcome; they are not university degrees, government licences or vendor certifications. These original assessments are not affiliated with TCS or its NQT.
Diamond is a separate review
Silver, Gold and Diamond are TALNORO classifications. Diamond is based on a separate review of relevant evidence, not an automatic score band or a paid upgrade. Profile publication requires consent and review.
Optional training and career support may help with preparation and authorised applications. Employers make their own hiring decisions; no employment or salary outcome is guaranteed.
