Interview-HR Interview
Hi Friends,
I'm Abhimanyu Garg from Ajay Kumar Garg Engineering College, Ghaziabad. Infosys came to our college on 9th January, 2011 and out of 360 elligible students 202 were finally selected.
The Infosys selection procedure comprises of,
1. Written test
2. HR interview
The written test comprises of 2 sections.
1. Logical reasoning test (30 questions, 40 mins)
2. Verbal test (40 questions, 30 mins)
Our test started at 7.00 pm in the evening and first the logical test paper was given and after 40 mins the logical paper was taken and verbal test paper was distributed.
Time management is the key thing while attempting the Infosys test. There is sectional cut-off which is not fixd but I guess it might be around 60% for logical test and 50% for verbal, generally the verbal section is considered to b the tougher one.
Logical section consisted of,
1. Odd figure out(5 questions)(straight from R.S Aggarwal)
2. 2 Puzzle test(10 questions)(prac from R.S Aggarwal)
3. Data sufficiency(5 questions)(not from R.S Aggarwal)
4. Data Interpretation(5 questions)(R.S Aggarwal quantitative)
5. Logic/Syllogism(5 questions)(R.S Aggarwal)(easy)
Prepare for logical test from R.S Aggarwal verbal/non-verbal book.
Verbal section consisted of,
1. Small comprehension
2. Bigger compression
3. Sentence completion
4. Error Detection
5. Sentence improvement
6. Inference/Theme detection
Prepare for verbal from R.S Aggarwal objective english book.
After that at around 11.30 pm the result for written was declared. The written test is the main elimination round and in our college out of 360, 217 cleared the written. Just what one needs to keep in mind is to remain calm and manage the time as there is no negetive marking so all the questions need to be attempted.
The interviews wer conducted on 10th from 10.30 am onwards. It is simply an H.R interview and they just check your communication skills.
My interview:
My name was called.
Me: May i come in sir?
HR: Yes please, have a seat.
HR: Can you give me your CV.
Me: Handed over the CV.
HR: So Abhimanyu whats your daily routine?
Me: Told.

Me: Told confidently.

Me: Thank you sir.
And at 6.00 pm in the evening the final results were announced and I was lucky to be one of the 202 selected students. I can proudly say I'm an Infosysian now.
