3 Interview Rounds
Interview Preparation Tips
Round: Test
Experience: There were two rounds all together.1) First round was an online round.It has three divisions: i) Aptitude – 10 questions 30 mins 5 questions were of seating arrangements, 1 question in time and work, 1 Q in number series , other two i don’t remember. Around 7 to 8 questions are easily solvable.ii) Reasoning – 30 questions 40 mins5 Questions in Data interpretation (easy) , around 3 in Syllogism ( unexpected format of syllogism), Datasufficiency, and some more puzzle and logical questions.This section is again easy to clear.iii) Verbal – 40 questions 35 minsTwo passages, 5 questions in each ( bit time taking). Fill in the blanks, sentence correction, Theme detection, etcThis part is little confusing. Start doing the passage comprehension lastly as they are time consuming. In case of passages, first read the questions once and remember the key words, then move to the passage and find for answers. Over all aptitude and reasoning are easy but verbal is little confusing because mostly all the choices seems to be correct.
Round: HR Interview
Experience: 2) Second round was face to face. In this you may get technical questions or general questions or both, thusdepends on the HR. As I went inside, greeted the HR and he asked me to take my seat. Hr asked me to tell about myself. While I was describing, he stopped in between and asked how I’m managing with my long distance travel. Explained and continued telling about myself. I explained about my Mini projects. He was impressed with that and asked some questions in it. Then explained about my final year project and again he asked some details about my project. I was asked to draw the flow chart of my project. Asked about some software life cycle models and differenceamong each and then asked to explain the life cycle I used in my project. Explained. I was asked to write a SQL query. Then asked about java , c and C++. He asked how I managed doing all my mini projects in spite of long distance travel. Explained and he was impressed. At last he asked whether I have any questions. I asked him whether Infosys is working on mobile development and if not what are the other technologies. Hr explained. He also explained about his work. Since I know little bit about it I managed responding him with some questions related to his explanation. Then he said thank you and I too thanked and left the room. He was more experienced and polite. He was keen about mycommunication. I was not much nervous because the Interview was more like a conversation you can have with a knowledgeable person than like an interview. So I was comfortable enough to manage. Key to clear Infosys HR round is communication and confidence.
