Interview-HR Interview

INFOSYS PAPER ON 21st JULY 2008

HI FRIENDS,
I AM SWATHI FROM GNITS , GOT PLACED INTO INFY , N I HOPE THIS PAGE HELPS U ALL

 
TEST PATTERN:

1. APTITUDE and VERBAL

2. HR

 

NOTE :(we were given an application form of infy we were asked to write it before the exam had started)

 

APTITUDE:

All questions were of REASONING type -----30 questions (R.S Aggarwal reasoning book is more than enough)

here time management is very important

One question was time consuming for me and

that was from the puzzle test so be prepared wid all 7 models of PUZZLE TEST

 

we had DATA INTETERPRETATION and as i couldnt solve the 1st question properly i had to solve this

so dont waste time for the questions u cannot solve instead do the one which is easier n refer (r s aggarwal quantitative aptitude for this)

mostly bar charts, tables and pi charts are given (we were given a table)

 

5 questions were from FIGURES

we were given 3 figures followed by a '?' 

in this the 1st two figures are have some relationship b/w them n based on that we hav to pick an answer figure which matches the 3rd figure

this was an easy one

 

5 questions were from SYLLOGISM

this was a bit different from wht i thought

they give 5 statements naming them a,b,c,d,e

then the answers choices were like 3 were paired eg:1)abe 2)dbe 3)aeb 4)dae

n we hav to find the pair which corretly matchs it if u do r.s aggarwal n r perfect wid all rules of syllogism i dont thing this would b tough

 

5 questions were of DATA SUFFICIENCY type

i felt this was easy

the questions i remember were from mensuration,length of train,ages of people

 

thts it in this part,  we were not told the cutoff but i think its better to try for atleast 20 out of 30

 

VERBAL:

40 questions were there

i scored 24 marks

there were 2 RCs one was of 2 pages i attempted in the last 5 min but i did it well i believe

then we had

 

correction of sentences

fill in the blank with correct word

around 5to 6 passages for which we had go choose the correct summary

u hav to read these very fast

time management is very very imp. here

do not waste even one min looking here and there coz tht one min costs a loooooooot

 

finally i was called my name for HR n i was on  the top of the world

i actually got thru wipro also but the joy of getting into a dream company is just great

one should definately experience it

 

HR:

One important thing is tht dont think tht its just HR

u should always remember tht there is one more hurdle to pass

in my 1st interview i hav learnt a lot "wht to do n wht not to do in the HR round" so if u hav not yet been placed then first analyze why tht has happened n try to improve on that coz there r huge oppertunities in this world

some way or the other u can get thru once u improve on urflaws

so be confident and dont be jelous abt the ones who hav already got its a very bad thing

 

My HR round was coool

HR: come in swathi

me: yes sir

HR: cmon take urseat

me: thank u sir (he had asked my resume and asked  me to sign on it n also at few places on the application form)

HR: so urfather works as so n so

HR: k then which was the coldest place u saw

HR: so would there b snow fall fall

me: (me sadly)no sir yet to see such a place once

HR: do u like travelling coz of urfathers transferable job

me: no sir even otherwise i never miss a chance to travel

HR: he gave me 3 topics and asked me to speak on 1

me: spoke abt supermarket (he was impressed)

HR: is there an incident in urlife whr u hav improved or had to changed urwork culture

me: said

HR: then she asked me abt my paper presentation(it was on face detection which comes under AI)

HR: how would u explain to a 7th class kid abt AI

me: i definately had an answer for tht so i answered n i think he was happy wid my answer

HR: k swathi there r 6 matchsticks here arrange them so that "each one touches one another"

me : i could make 5 to touch each other but not the 6th one

HR: then he asked me to make 4 equlateral triangles with those sticks

me: (the answer is to make a  pyramid out of it)i almost did it then he sait to leave it aside

HR: k so wht sports do u play

me: i enjoy playing badminton and these days i hav started playing TT too n i njoy tht too

HR: do u hav ny questions
