staffing

i. Primus Campus Initiative: HCLTech partners with select engineering colleges, called HCLTech Primus Campuses, where an industry-aligned curriculum is integrated to bridge the gap between academics and real-world requirements. Students from these campuses receive training that better equips them for AMP assessments.

ii. Training for Non-Primus and Off-Campus Candidates: Candidates hired from non-Primus colleges or through Off-Campus drives are required to undergo mandatory pre-joining training and clear a post-training assessment. This program is designed to strengthen their technical and professional skills, enabling them to perform better in evaluations and potentially upgrade their offer from Ascend to Momentum or Polaris.

These represent three salary levels under AMP:

• Ascend: All candidates who successfully clear the selection process will receive an offer under the Ascend Program. The salary package will vary based on the location of posting. At HCLTech New Vistas locations (Lucknow, Nagpur, Vijayawada, and Madurai), the salary will be ₹3.75 LPA, while for all other locations it will be ₹4.50 LPA.
• Momentum & Polaris: The top 10% of Ascend candidates, based on their further skill assessment, can upgrade to Momentum at ₹6.0 LPA or Polaris at ₹10.0 LPA.
