1/12/14 Interviewquestions: Infosys Placement Paper
We all gathers at main hall at 9AM. There were around 350 students (B.Tech + MCA). Company announce aboutthe Online Test to be held in four batches. Before the Online test there was a pre placement talk in which HRannounced terms and conditions including salary packages.
They announced:
Salary Package:3.25 P.A for MCA and B-Tech (CS+IT+EC+EN).
3.5 P.A for B.Tech (Mechanical).
A handful of Stipend during Training at Mysore campus. They discuss about life at Infosys.
Finally they announced for the Online Test. I appeared in the Online test and try my best to make it.
About Questions paper:
The Structure of the questions paper was:
100 Questions divided in different sections like.
1 - English Aptitude test.
2 - Numerical Aptitude test.
3 - Data Interpretation Aptitude test.
English Aptitude test comprises of (Level:Easy).
1 - 3 Long paragraph including 5 questions in each.
2 - Sentence Rearrangement.
3 - Find the error in the sentence.
Numerical Aptitude test section comprises of (Level:Moderate).
1 - Basic aptitude questions.
2 - Puzzle base questions.
3 - Time and distance, Age related questions, etc.
Data Interpretation Questions comprises of (Level:Hard as so much calculation required).
1 - Data Sufficiency section.
2 - Pie chart, Tabular form and bar char questions.
Some basic Suggestions for the test paper.
1 - Maintain time.
2 - Try to do easy questions first.
3 - Don't give so much time for a question, Leave it if you are unable to solve it in one attempt.
4 - Solve data sufficiency questions first, then after data Interpretation section, then after English sentencerearrangement, then after puzzle based question, then after DI questions, At last English paragraph (Give at least20 minutes for the paragraph sections it comprises of 10-15 questions).
After the Online test Result declared after 2 hours. Everyone expects their name in the list. I was confident to getselected. Hearts beats going fast as the declare the names but after declaring the 50 names they stop. Everyonethought there will be the another list. But everyone shocked to hear as they announced this is final list ofshortlisted students. I was not in the list (It was hard to believe). There was No MCA student in the list. Finally Ireturned with broken heart from the Main hall. Many of the students broke into tears. This time Infosys teamselects only 50 students in aptitude test because of the rescission and other reasons. (Don't know as we ask forthe HR but they did not tell us.).

But we forget all this after the couple of days and start preparing for the next company. I got selected in Videoconafter appearing in Dell, Newgen Software and some other big companies.
Moral:
Never lose your heart if you can't make in your dream company. Try and try until you find your deserving place.Hard work always works.
Some Suggested Readings for the aptitude test:
1 - Practice hard Level-3 and Level-2 Questions of Data Interpenetration from Internet and are S Agrawal andother best possible (Don't rely much on RS Aggrawal Book).
2 - Practice hard on English Grammar (Error Correction and Error Delectation) from CAT level book.
3 - Practice puzzle question from internet.
"Hard you practice. There will be more chances for the selection".
"Internet is the vast resource try it and best manner".
All The Best :).

Infosys - Shaheed Bhagat Singh College of Engineering and Technology, Ferozepur, 8 Oct. 2012The aptitude paper was very easy.
One of the question was: There was given a series in which hexagons were there, each hexagon was divided in sixparts and numbers were assigned to each part. In first hexagon numbers were present as 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. In second2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7. In third 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8. In 4th hexagon first number was missing and we had to guess that number.
Answer was obviously 4.
The basic reason backing the aptitude has changed. Now they are looking if the candidate can manipulate things.Another there was given a pie chart and we had to do some calculations based on that and needless to say it wasalso very easy as only addition, sub, division, multiplication had to be used in it.
5 questions were based on syllogism. Do practice syllogism by using venn diagrams and not theoretically as itmakes the task lot more easier and faster (you can check it on this website and in the "DISCUSS IN FORUM"given below each question).
Please do give preference to English as they lay a lot of emphasis on it.
INTERVIEW:
The interviewer didn't ask me for any introduction. He began from asking me what was the latest supercomputer.Then he asked me "When he was coming from Ludhiana to Ferozepur, on the highway he saw that manyaccidents took place every day.
He asked me that if I were the manager what steps would I take to make an internet application about analyzing thenumber of deaths taking place everyday, peak time when max number of accidents took place, etc.
I answered that first I would say the web designers to begin working on the design of website and then I will call ameeting to discuss other aspects like how to gather data about accidents. Then he asked me how I could gatherdata.
I replied that ambulance and police are first to reach there. So I can get data from civil hospitals or police stations.Then he asked me what would I do if I encounter an error after the app is complete. The answer he was expectingwas just to say that I will analyse it from the beginning to get out the place of error.
Then he asked that it would be very time consuming to find error in this way. Then I said I will use modularprogramming in which a small prototype is built and tested and then further modules are added in it by subsequenttesting at each level.
He then asked how will I come to know when a particular module is completed. I said that there is a "99%SYNDROME" i.e. managers think that 99% of their work is complete even when only 40% of the work has beendone.
So to keep a check on when a module is completed we should set a milestone for every module. Eg: we can set
1/12/14 Interviewquestions: Infosys Placement Paper
that until the documentation is not complete the module is also not complete.
It was purely a HR interview.
You definitely need to have fluency in English.
The interview lasted for 15 min approx. And results came about in an hour. Alas! I was selected. All thanks toindiabix.com.
Guys am not much of an intelligent person, if I can do you can also do it. The advantage I got was because oftheir emphasis on English and rigorous practicing on this website for more than one month.
I nearly did every question present on this website and this was the only thing I did. This website is more thansufficient. You can learn lot of things in "DISCUSS IN FORUM" section given below each question. So don'tmiss even a single comment and keep helping others.
Thank you.
