Infosys Paper 432
INFOSYS PAPER ON 19th MAY
Hi INFI aspirants!
We had INFOSYS off-campus drive on 19th may at GMRIT College, Rajam. Abt 680 students attended, from
5 colls.
We were 150 from our coll ‘Vignan Intitute of Information Technology’
It started wid a pp abt INFOSYS.
Before the written test, we had to fill a form. Be careful not to round off ur % s. Basic details were
asked. Marks.
coll, eye sight, passport. don՚t make any mistakes. Carry at least 4 passpt. Size photos and 3
resumes (pic stuck; ur sign with date n place) .
The Recruitment process has just two rounds:
- Written test.
- HR interview.
Written Test
Coming to the written test, it has two sections:
Logical Reasoning 30 Questions (45 min) .
Communicative English 40 Questions (30 min) .
ts pretty easy to crack the logical reasoning paper if u can prepare a few topics all from the book
‘verbal and nonverbal reasoning-R. S. Aggarwal’
My paper
5Q on cubes.
There were some statements detailing about colors on a cube, we should use them to analyze and answer
some questions.
Carry an ‘eraser’ so that u can use it as a cube to answer this faster.
5Q-picture problems (identifying the odd one in a series) .
5Q data sufficiency.
5Q data interpretation.
Ull find this topic in R. S. Agarwal Quant book last chapter.
5Q puzzle test.
Very confusing needs lot of analysis and practice consumes significant time.
5Q syllogisms.
Ull find this in chapter-1 of unit-2. There will be 9 rules, this is a bit tough. Work out the
exercises, ull sense the
usual pattern in answering them.
Now, about the English paper, there՚s no specific book if u have a habit of reading books, it
really helps. I
didn՚t prepare for this, but could do well.
10Q-Two reading comprehensions (big, small) . it՚s strictly advisable to do them in the end. I just
had 7 min to do
this. u don՚t have to read the whole passage to answer the qs. A quick glance is enough. Smaller
RC had
reasoning qs so u must read it but the bigger one had direct qs.
7Q completion of sentences.
7Q fill the appropriate word.
10Q correction of sentences (tenses r tested) .
6Q paragraph inferences (a para is given and qs were asked abt it) .
10Q choose the correct sentence (a bit confusing, a couple of them seemed too similar) .
I answered all the qs in order, except RC, which I did at last.
Everybody can answer all the Qs if given ample time. TIME MANAGEMENT is the success mantra. English
paper is considered first, LR paper is evaluated only if u cross the cut-off. There is lot of
elimination in
written. Only some 120 could clear, out of 680.
HR interview
Usually INFOSYS does not have any technical round, but out of the 6 panels we had. One panel՚s HR
asked
technical qs. Technical test in INFI is rare.
One common Q in all panels was Speak about a topic (any) for 2 min.
The HR examines the written papers, resumes and app. Form filled earlier of the candidate before
he/she enters
the room. He, by the time u enter, analyses the candidate n decides how he/she needs to be tackled.
Regarding mine
Me: May I come in sir?
HR: Yes come in:
Me: Good evening sir
HR: Good evening take ur seat.
HR: Well Roopa. Wat is ur father. Wat is his work at steel plant (he is working there) .
Me: Blah blah I told him.
HR: So u r from IT let me ask u some qs relating to IT. He asked me some qs relating to OS and
microprocessors.
I՚m well acquainted abt these topics, so cud answer well. He kept helping if i missed some points.
He asked me to speak abt a topic. I started a topic but he interrupted and said that I should be
strong abt the aim
of the topic. As his choice, he asked me to speak abt the then Punjab disputes or Presidential
elections when
he saw me feeling uncomfortable. Asked me if I could speak abt ‘indiscipline in my coll’ I could
do this pretty
well.
I first started wid the various kinds of indispl actions why they r unacceptable. Some measures
to keep a
check on them. Finally abt indiscipline in my coll in a positive tone.
I had to handle a case study:
Mr. Smarty is a member of a team, working on a project in a software company.
U r part of the team. Smarty is the person who mediates between the client and the team. But he
keeps changing
the preferences conveyed by the client as a result the team is unable to start the work. Is Smarty
edgy?
HR: Wat kind of person is he.
Me: He is uncertain and edgy.
HR: Wat would u suggest to solve this.
I gave him three answers. Out of them the apt one, which he wanted was. I shall escort him, when
he meets the
client and then discuss wid the other team members for a collective opinion on the preferences, to
start the
project. He looked satisfied.
He lastly asked if had any queries. I asked some qs regarding the growth of infi and about its CMM
levels.
HR: Thank u roopa. u can leave.
While answering any Q, the HR measures Learnability, he keeps hinting abt wat he wants actually
simple puzzles
were also asked in some panels. Have clear ideas abt hobbies, strengths and weakness (n wat u write in ur resume)
we need to be ready with an explanation.
Finally, from our college. 21 got selected out of 50.
LUCK plays an important role in any recruitment process.
I firstly thank my parents n friends for their unconditional support secondly my coll, for the crt
classes … And this
website for making me an INFOSCION. I wish all my Batchmates, GREAT SUCCESS in the near future.
I hope my contribution really helps.
ALL THE BEST.
Roopa. P
INFOSYS PAPER ON 31st MAY
Hai friends this is Ramakanth frm Nalanda Institute of Engineering & Technology, Sattenapalli.
Recently Infosys
visited Vignan College for Off-Campus selections. Totally 739 members attended selections, 128
cleared the written
test & totally 55 got placed in the Company. Luckily iam also one of the 55 members who got placed.
So i want to
share my experiences with u, first of all I thank Jobduniya for providing information about Infosys.
The total procedure for Infosys selection is of two stages, They r
- Written test
- Tech cum HR Written test consists of 2 papers, they are
- Reasoning
- Verbal
Reasoning paper consists of 30 quos should be solved in 40 mins
first 5 quos are based on Cubes. The problem is: If a cube of dimensions on 3 ⚹ 4 ⚹ 5 coloured with three
different colors
namely Red, Green, Black are painted on opposite corners of the cube. This cube is cut down into 78
smaller cubes. Of
these 78,73 are smaller in dimension & remaining 5 are bigger than remaining but of equal
dimension.
From these given information 5 quos were asked. They are of this type
- How many cubes are there painted with red colr?
- How many cubes are there of painted on three sides?
- How many cubes are there of painted on two sides?
- How many cubes are there of painted on only one side?
- How many cubes are of unpainted? I cant remeber the dimension right, but the quos r like these.
Next 5 quos are on Non-verbal reasoning i.e.. . , odd man out series. This is very easy section to answer
in very less
time. Out of 5 quos 4 are straight out frm R. S. Agarwal Reasoning text book. So read that book
thoroughly especially 3rd
chapter namely Classifications in Non-Verbal part to answer these quos.
Next 5 quos are on Data sufficiency, these r also easy ones. Repeated frm previous papers
Next 5 quos are on Data Interpretation, these r tougher than earlier ones. He gave the graphical
representation of the
incomes of 8 management institutes of three years. All 5 quos r on Percentages, so be well prepare
percentages & try to
learn speed maths (fast solving) to answer this section. I failed to solve these quos
so i randomly picked the answers bcoz there is no-ve marking.
Next 5 quos are on Puzzle test, He gave information about Six friends about their
heights, weights, gender. First of all u
have to analyse the info. & arrange them in increasing&decreasing order. If u done it u can answer the
quos very
easily.
Next 5 quos are on Syllogism. Out of these 5 quos 1 quo is straight out frm R. S. Agarwal book. Others
also of same
type, if u use Venn diagrams its time consuming so use venn diagrams in effective manner.
This is all about Reasoning paper.
Verbal paper consists of 40 quos to be answered in 30 min. This is little bit tougher than reasoning
paper if u poor in
English otherwise its also easy paper, It consists of two big passages. The quos on these passages are
very easy. If u read
the passage faster then u can answer the quos very easily. Reading newspaper daily helps to solve this
section.
Next 5 quos are on fill in the blanks with word that can fit grammatically & logically. Thse r also
easy & little bit
confusing, logical thinking is necessary to answer this section.
Next 5 quos are on replacing the underlined phrase with suitable option. This is also very confusing.
Next 5 quos are finding the conclusions for five small passages. This is also confusing
Next 5 quos r finding the grammatically correct sentence frm the options given below. This is also
confusing but easy
if u r good in grammer. Especially they are asking on Perfect tense. So learn it carefully.
Sorry frnds i cant remember the whole paper, i suggest u to read news paper daily & read the
Run&martin book for
grammer. This is all about my written test.
The results were announced at 3: 30 pm afternoon, my HR waqs conducted at 9: 30 pm night. I waited
patiently for 6
hours with some tension. Luckily there are no technical quos only hr.
I entered the cabin & wished my HR, she is a lady, she also wished me & asked to take the seat. Next
she asked my
resume & i handled it to her. She asked about my family details. Next she asked “What kind person u are?” Next she
asked the justification of all my personal skills mentioned in my Cv. I explained her with suitable
examples. Next she
asked some crucial quos like “If u cant adjust within the team u r working what do u do at that time?” I answered very
carefully & very convincingly. Next she asked about my extra activities other than curricullum. Next
she asked about
my hobbies. Finally with a clean smile in her face she asked me to leave, I also left the cabin with
small smile.
My suggestion to face the HR is Be confident & be truthful. Hope my experience will help u & all the
best my dear
frnds byeee to all.
