Infosys interview experience and Pattern June 2005 at Satyabama Campus, Chennai by Shankara

I have recently attended INFOSYS interview at Satyabama Campus, Chennai

(COLLEGES : Satyabama(Deemed) University, Panimalar Engg College,SRM(Deemed),Valliammai Engg Coll, Eswari Engg Coll, Crecent Eng College.)

There were 6 colleges altogether (around 2000) n they gave offer letters for 434 candidates,I being one of them.

The general interview pattern is like this:


1)  General Aptitude test----1hr( They took around 8hrs to evaluate 2000 papers)
2)  Verbal test----1/2hr
3)  HR interview 20-30mins (Results were published in 3hrs from completions of all Interviews)


1)  For the general Aptitude, be thorough with SHAKUNTALA DEVI(2 Books) n GEORGE SUMMERS thats all.If possible be thorough with the 1000 n odd questions composed by anna university guys ,it is said that they(infy) always give questions from that pack n i got 90% of my questions from that collection. Those 3 books will give u a rough idea on how to solve t INFY questions but not t exact questions.MY ADVICE IS THAT U SOLVE IN GROUPS ITS IMPOSSIBLE TO SOLVE ALONE.
2) If u ar a CBSE student its just a piece of cake in t verbal test, for others i advice u go through BARRONS GRE TEST PREP (only the test papers)
3) This is where majority of t folks ar pushed out. During my interview, mine was t last panel of nearly 700 odd students shortlisted. By t time i had fairly got an idea how my interview was gonna be n i was well prep for any odds.These were t tips i had in my mind b4 entering t room.
--- Ask "May i come in"with a SMILING Face
---Wish Him/Her with a SMILING Face ,(An opposite sex interviwer alwayz helps!! I was LUCKY)
---Sit if only he/she tells u too---n thank him/her for it with a SMILING Face.
---offer uar resume,mostly they wont ask 4 it, jus keep it on t table.
---dont shake uar legs,hands etc----dont cross them either
---hoping u know t normal interview ques("tell me abt uarself...etc) .....iam skipping those.
---they will give u 2/3 simple puzzles(get it from those who finish b4 u).....try to solve them if not accept u ar not able to with a pleasent face...at any point dont keep uar face stiff
---The puzzels they give u is jus to stress u n see how u react at stressful times.....Fortunately i happened to solve t two puzz given by me HR(simple prob from SK DEVI)....but most of my friends who got selected did not even ans 1 ques but accepted their defeat n spoke cordially to them WITH A SMILING FACE.
---They alwayz ask abt leadership qualities ....substantiate them with convincing examples from uar school days to recent times.....Major plus area.

---ALL TIME DURING T INTERVIEW THEY SEE HOW U COMMUNICATE THAT IS ALL....DONT EVER KEEP UAR FACE RIGID .... ALWAYZ KEEP SMILING N DONT MAKE IT LOOK DELIBERATE.
---Have some ques prep 4 t panel if they ask for it.....DONT EVER SAY NO QUESTIONS
---Thats it thank t interviwer n leave quietly n relax
That was t interview pattern ...... ALL T BEST FOLKS
