Hope you are all doing great in life Friends,
I would like to share my experience with all who happen to browse through this beautiful and should. I add a very informative website for freshers like me
I hope my experience in the aptitude and HR round might help you all in some way.
Students from many engineering colleges in West Bengal attended this campussing. The venue was Heritage institute of technology and the whole process took place through 2 days (11th and 12th September).
As most of you know, Infosys has two different sections in their aptitude test
1) One was the Reasoning aptitude test(30 questions which included data interpretation, logical reasoning, pictorial puzzles, basic derivative mathematical problems)
2) Another part was the Verbal aptitude test(40 questions which included 2 long passages, sentence correction, fill in the blanks with appropriate words, replace a part of a sentence with the correct verbal phrase)
No negative marking in either of the sections, but I am not sure whether there are sectional cut-offs. So be sure to attempt all the questions in both sections, dont dawdle with one question if you dont know it. Be sure to pass one to the next one, remember in such little time utilizing every minute is very very important. Even 1 correct or 1 wrong answer could make the difference.
It is a very thin line that might help you to nail the job or get yourself nailed.
Total students appeared Approx 2000
Shortlisted for HR 390
This Aptitude rounds are the ones where a staggering 1600 students got eliminated, which in this case amounts to 80% of the strength
My interview was a 1:1 panel. Trust me when I tell you that Infosys HRs are very frank and cool.
I entered the room after asking for permission (always ask for permission before you step in)
Me: may I come in sir
HR: yes, please come in
The HR was sitting in his chair, so I reached out spontaneously for a handshake and greeted him a very good morning. He looked up to me and extended his hand very pleasingly and smiled and replied good morning. Many say that you shouldnt extend your hand first for the handshake if the HR doesnt. But many think thats rubbish and i too share the same opinion. Shaking the hand is a way of showing courtesy and greeting the person. It also shows that you are not nervous and you are confident, so it helps in creating a good positive impression about you in the HRs mind even before the interview has begun. A good firm (not bone- crushing) handshake acts like a pleasant stimulator.
