INFOSYS PAPER ON 5th FEBRUARY AT BHUBANESWAR
Hi, i am Ranjit and i appeared for Infosys campus drive in College of Engineering, Bhubaneswar on 5th feb,2008. To be frank i was not at all prepared for the campus drive. i expected infosys to visit our campus around 15th feb, but it visited on 5th which created a lot of tension.
I am very thankful to Freshersworld.com and all the students whose valuable feedback helped me tremendously in my three days preparation for Infosys.
Written was quite easy which focussed mainly on Reasoning and English. I could answer most of them. Remember there is sectional cutoff which may vary from 60% to 70%, so be careful.
There were more than 350 students who appeared and out of which 73 could clear the written. After that there was a PI. Here are some questions asked in my PI.
Me: (knocked on the door) Excuse me
sir, may i come in?
HR: yes please.
Me: (before the chair) good evening sir.
Hr: Good evening. (then he shook hands with me. Remember to give a firm
handshake. they r looking for confidence). give me your resume. have a
sit.
Me: thank you sir.
HR: (After having a glance at my resume) So Ranjit tell me something about
yourself.
Me: (I didnot repeat my name because he already knew my name. I said about
myself)
HR: how many siblings do you have.
Me: i answered.
HR: what are they doing?
Me: (I said).
HR: What is your favourite subject?
Me: I like Microprocessor.
HR: Apart from this do you have another favourite subject.
Me: Transmission and distribution
HR: Tell me how power is distributed?
Me: ( I said)
HR: what is a capacitor? (i am from electrical branch so these questions were
asked to me).
Me: ( answered)
HR: what is a transformer?
Me: I answered.
HR: How does an escalator work?
Me: (I answered).
HR: Do we use any electronics devices in escalators?
Me: ( answered)
HR: (then he gave me a puzzle about a train stuck between two stations and it is
flooded outside. i have no means to communicate outside the train, what will i
do in such a situation)
Me: I answered. ( Not all the questions have a perfect answer. remember while
answering just speak about whatever is going on inside your mind. they just want
to see your approach towards the problem.)
HR: do you have anything to ask to me?
Me: What kind of prpaparation do i need to make before joining Infosys, if i get
selected?
HR: He answered. ( just listen to what he says).
Thanks you Ranjit. this is all i would like to know about you.
Me: Thank you sir, it was nice talking to you.
The results were declared 2 hours after i was interviewed. I was one among 43 who got through the Interview. A lot of credit goes to Freshersworld.com for providing such a wonderful forum for students to share their experiences. Best of Luck guys and gals. and if you get selected then do write your feedback, this will definitely help others.
