Jayanthi initially wanted a career in banking and finance, but when Tata Consultancy Services, or TCS, made her a campus offer, she changed her mind and accepted. She learnt the most at TCS, she says, where she spent 10 years. But the big turning point of her career came when she joined E&Y's consulting unit in India just before it was sold to Capgemini.
