INFOSYS PATTERN & INTERVIEW - 05 FEB 2008 - HOOGLY

Hi Friends

If u hav innovation n creativity then cracking Infy is real fun.....its a test of ur analytical n verbal power..... if u r creative n innovative then u can easily solve the analytical reasoning part (its the 1st part of the aptitude test consisting of 30 questions n 40 mins time) n if u r good in English means mainly u hav a great idea abt english grammer then u can easily solve out the verbal part, consist of 40 questions n 35 mins time.... In this part there must be some biggi biggi unseen passages from which u hav to ans the question.....so u hav to b good in comprehension skills but honestly speaking its realy easy to crack for students like me who atleast study 2 hrs a day (everyday)....

now the HR/PI part of the whole procedure... its the most dangerous part cuz u hav to hold ur nerve here n hav to trust ur ability constantly......

here is some question they asked me in my HR/PI..

Me:(after knocking the door for two times when he saw me) may i come in sir??
Sir:yes come in
Me:Thank u sir..after reachin the chair where i supposed to sit i wished him good afternoon
sir:take ur sit..
Me:thank u sir
Sir:whats ur name?
Me:told
Sir:tell me something abt urself
Me:burst out all my abilities n good qualities in front of him...
Sir:ok temme 10 different uses of a pen
Me:told (not ten but atleast 5)
Sir:hw can we measure the hight of a tall building wid barometer
Me:told
Sir:if i give u 10 bricks, temme 10 uses of those bricks..
Me:told (all of r constuction related.....say something more innovative like for body building (gym) n for traction)
Sir:r u a team leader?
Me:yes
Sir:temme 5 positive traits a team leader should hav???
Me:told..
Sir:if u r a captain of a team n ur team is loosing constantly, then what will u do as a captain to motivate the player
Me:told
Sir:ok its enough ..u may go now.....
Me:nice talking to u sir.. hav a nice day n shaked my hand wid him n went out..

It was a real easy interview one can dream of... but b careful dont stuck in a particular question.. if u dont know honestly tell him that u dont hav any idea abt that topic..... be innovative, they just want to see hw good u r prepared for a task that is very new to u..... try to avoid lies... u must b careful abt ur body language, ur presentation of urself, manners n other impo stuffs... if all goes well, u will b in Infy... so best of luck.

i was among the 8 students of my coll those were selected...
just give ur best..ur dream will positively come true...
