Infosys
Posted by sweetsmellofsuccess on June 26, 2008
Infosys was the next company i tried my luck with.I never wanted to get it but still just gave a try.I was not at all tensed because i was already placed and i hope that helped me a lot.The test pattern of infosys is bit different from TCS .I felt it was easier than TCS.i think aptitude questions from Aggarwal and some basic english would easily get you through.i would suggest use of high school grammar book Wren and Martin.what infosys had extra was some picture questions.They give 3 pictures and you have to find the next.Many bank tests etc this sort of questions i think.also there was this logical questions like ‘all dogs are cats ,some cats are birds so then four options like some dogs are cats,some birds are dogs etc … ‘.I think Aggarwal has a thicker book which contains all these sort of questions.Buy that if possible.
Let me test your aptitude : find the next number in the series : 13 , 8 , 5 , 4 , ?
This is very easy if you think in the right direction.Aptitude is like singing or dancing.Some people are better at it.some can get good marks even without studying much.Some ( Usually those top scoring people in the class) have real difficulty with this.Just find out where you stand and work accordingly.Clearing aptitude is not very difficult.
Now the interview part.My interview was a sort of stress interview.First question was ‘are you already placed’.I said yes n the interviewer in an angry way asked me then why Infosys.I jus talked about how infosys was started with very low capital far later than tcs but is now a competitor to it etc etc n convinced him that infosys has a better growth rate and hence i too has a better growth opportunity in infosys than tcs etc.But still interview continued in a stress manner.My resume had chess in ma hobbies.He asked many openings and strategies.Few i answered but later i said am not a professional or anything.
I think writing further of interview wouldn’t be of much help.Anyway if u feel an interview is stress just be cool and always remember the interviewer has nothing personal with you and that he is just testing you.keep your cool always smile and reply with respect.
