INFOSYS PAPER ON 15th FEBRUARY AT MUMBAI
hey ppl, got placed in infy on 15th of feb...I think our college was d first 1 infy visited for d batch of 2008 in mumbai university..
the placement procedure was as follows...
1.PRE PLACEMENT TALK(around 90 min)
This is kind of an introduction to d company and d work it does,its vision,the fields its involved in,the places its present...and so on...pls pay attention to what is being said...they may ask u something frm it during the interview..
2.FORM FILLING.(30 min)
After the presentation ,we were taken to a classroom where we were made 2 fill a form.The form included all d personal details and stuff.....the most important section there is d marks.fill it up accurately.
3.APTITUDE TEST
the aptitude test was for 40 min and had 30 questions.infy has stopped asking puzzles in its aptitude test.now the test pattern is similar to d CAT actually there were 6 sections...each having 5 questions...all were multiple choice questions and there was NO negative marking.
i dont remember exactly but d frst question was lik....
maruti produces 2 cars...maruti 800 and zen.there are 4 mechanics 5 assemblers and 2 quality checkers.each of them works for 8 hrs a day.maruti 800 reqiures 20 min for a mechanic 2 work on it,30 min for a assembler and 1hr for a quality checker while for zen its 20,30,40 respectively(numbers may not b exact,but d imp thing here is to see d type of questions).
so1.wat is max no. of cars dat can bproduced in a day?
2.if 1 extra assembler is added wat is d increase in production of xen?
3.if 5 maruti 800 are already produced ,how many more zen can b produced?
next five were d symbols and finding d odd 1 out....this was easy.. then der was data sufficiency,some questions on percentages and logical reasoning(venn diagrams)
they provided a rough sheet...pls solve d problems on d sheet...even if u go wrong they check d sheet...if u were very close to d ans...they giv due compensation...at least thats wat ive heard..
after that the took the apti question paper...the ans paper remained with us and den provided us with d english paper that had 40 questions and was for 35 min... english is really easy...its lik solving a 10th std question paper...there were 2 passages,and find d appropriate sentence type questions... 1 imortant thing is dat english gets over within 20-25 min...so write some questions fronm d aptitude test on ur rough sheet...then u can solve it once ur english paper is over...it really helps...
After 2 hrs dey declared d results...out of 200 candidates 53 were selected for d interview.
4.INTERVIEW.
d interview aint any trouble at all.u just hav 2 b cool and slightly confident...believe me thats all it takes...enter d room walking straight...dont slouch..and sit only wen asked too....there was just 1 interviewer during my interview.
some of d questions were..
1.tell me something abt urself and ur family.
2.y do u wanna join infosys?
3strength and weakness..
4.what r ur hobbies?
5.do u surf d net?if yes...den wat do u surf?
6.r u ready 2 leave bombay?
7.some puzzles/...dont worry if u cant answer dem...they just see ur approach...and dont giv up instantly...try doin something....anything...just dont giv up 2 early..
8.10 uses of a stapler..
9do u wanna ask me any question?
the interview is generally around 20 min...and unless some real bad prob occurs during d interview ...ur sure 2 b selected...around 85% ppl are selected...so ur main priority shld b clearing d apti..
