Financial assistance for the course fee – given the current economic situation, if HCL is offering anything that could be a breather for the students/parents?
The TechBee program is designed with the aim to hire the best talent and enable them to achieve financial independence. This is reiterated by the fact that during the entire period of training, enrolled students are paid an attractive stipend so that they are self-reliant, start earning early and can take charge of their lives.
