Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Resume Shortlist
Experience: Resume is the most important part of your whole placement process. Your resume reflects your whole profile, what you are. So, we had to do that properly. Main thing is the format of the resume. For getting the proper format itself we had to go through a lot, but our staffs do guide us so that's not a problem.
Tips: Stick to the proper and latest format and make sure your resume shouldn't be more than 2 pages, that's ideal for a fresher. Write only those points that are valid and if any question asked related to that, you can answer.

Round: Test
Experience: We had gone through a lot of practice tests during the placement classes and if your English is good, you will easily get through it. They just give basic grammer which we have already learnt in our school days. The Quant's part is also easy and basic maths that we have done in our primary school (7-10). Reasoning part completely based on your IQ level.
Tips: Focus on your vocabulary. Read books, articles and whatever you can. Just keep yourself up to date. Practice the basic quants. There are various books for both Quant's and reasoning. Just keep practising.

Round: HR Interview
Experience: I had a very tough experience. Since I'm from Biotechnology department, I was asked questions like why do I want to work in an IT company. They were actually testing my patience and I got through it. Your HR interview depends on your HR itself, even the time limit. My interview went for almost half an hour, but for few it got over even in 10-15 mins, so it depends.
Tips: Just be confident. Presentation is very important. Present yourself in a confident manner and be calm and patience. You should have good communication skill.

General Tips: Be confident and patient. Make sure you choose the proper job for yourself and have interest in that field. You will get through it. Placement is not that tough as you think. Just have confidence in yourself and you will get it. All the best.
Skills: Quants, verbal, reasoning, Soft skills, Communication skill
College Name: SATHYABAMA UNIVERSITY
Motivation: I have always wanted to go in this and Infosys is considered as one the top IT companies in India and more over they offer you the best training. An infocician is highly recognised outside. Last but not the least, you have the biggest and the best campus for Infosys.
Funny Moments: Nothing as such, but I had really a funny HR round. For half an hour he kept Me asking the same question just to check my patience level. We had a great time during the placement classes. All the staffs were very friendly and interactive.
