Hello Folks..
My Experience With INFY Was Quite Different Frm Usual One..
Wat I Personally Feel Is That M Good At Technical And Much Week In Communication Skills...
So Knwing That INFY Dont Have A TR, I Was Little Bit Worried, And Moreover As I Was Having My Toughest Exam Of
Microcontroller On 18th (Day Next To Campus) I Was Feared..
Bt Nyhow I Decide To Go For It, Pack My Bag And Leave For Kalka(My Uncle's House)
Next Day I Got There About 8am. And Then We Were Made To Wait Till 10:30 (Dat Was Not A Good Feeling As Time Was
Running And I Wasn't Able To Study For My Sub. At That Moment)
Nyway The PPT Started At About 11am, By The North Zone's Recruitment Manager, And It Was Very Nice [One Of The Best
Presentations Of Mah Life, The Last Video Pumps Me, Really It Does :)]
Mr. Manager Tells Us About The Process Which Consist Of Written Then Personal Interviews.
The Written Consist Of Two Part (Apti+Eng)
Apti Part Was Very Easy(30 Questions, 40 Mins). I Finished It In About 15 Mins Only.
Then
Come The Eng Part(40 Questions, 35 Mins), And As Expected It Was Tough,
Really Very Though. But Somehow I Managed To Get Over It..
The Results Are Announced After 2.5 Hrs. And I Was Amongst The Selected One, I Was Happy.
I Change My Dress To Formal Then Reach The Audi Where I Was Told That HR 3 Will Interview Me(I Was The First To Be
Interviewed By Him)
He Was A Sardarji In His Late 50s. And Was Not Interesting Atall. He Was Very Boring.
Here Goes My Experience With Him Which Last For Around 15 Mins..
I Entered The Room, Wish Him Good-day. Then Stand In Front Of The Desk (I Was Told Not To Sit, Untill Offered)
He Says Me To Sit, And I,
Then He Gave Me An Attendance Sheet, I Signed It.
Then Ask For My Resume, I Gave Him The Same.
He Started Reading It, And Dont Ask Me Anything For About 5 Mins.
HR : Okays Siddharth Tell Me A Little Bit About Urself.
ME : Answered.
HR : Siddharth You Seems To Have A Lot Of Presentation Skill (As My Resume Indicates I Hv Won A Lot Of Prizes In
Presentations)
ME : Yes Sir.
HR : Do You Enjoy Giving Presentations.
ME : Yes Sir I Do.
HR : You Were Also In NCC During Your School Time, What Did You Leared There.
Me : Answered.
HR : Tell Me Who Is The Main Leader Of 3 Forces.
ME : President Of INDIA.
HR : Tell Me The Name
ME : You Wont Belive What I Answered Him, I Said Mr. Prathihba Singh Devi Patil
HR : MR.????
ME : Oh, Sorry Sir. Miss.
HR : Miss???
ME : Sorry Sir, Mrs. Pratibha Singh Devi Patil.
HR : Without Ny Expression On His Face, You Okay Na.
ME : Yes Sir, M Jst A Little Nervous.
HR : Why So?
ME : sir Its My First Interview.
HR : Siddharth, What Did You Learn In Your Trainings.
ME : Answered.
HR : Siddharth, You Have Won Lot Of Prizes In Different Clgs, Even In NITs, Why Dont You Have Won Anything In Your
Own Clg.
ME : Sir I Dont Participate In My Own Clg.
HR : Why???
ME : Sir I Organise Events In My Own Clg.
HR : Siddharth Who Do You Find You Clg.
ME : Sir, Clg Is Nice, Bt M Not Happy With The Faculty There.
HR : Why???
ME : Sir Most Of Them Are Freshers, And Are Not Good At Teaching.
HR : Okays Siddharth, It Was Nice Talking To You.
ME : Thank you Sir.
HR : Do You Have Ny Query???
ME : I Was Told To Question At least Something, So I Ask Why Is INFOSYS Recruiting In Large Numbers, Is There Anything
Very Big Coming On???
HR : Infosys Always Recruits In Large Numbers..
So I Was Quite Happy With My Interview, Was Thinking Of Getting Through,
Bt That Happiness Dont Last Very Long.
The Girl Who Was Interviewed Next To Me Who Was Of My Class Was Also Asked About The Faculty In My Clg, And She Said
That The Faculty At Clg Is Superb, Everyone Is Atleast M.Tech.
So I Thought Either She Will Be Selected Or I, Bt As She Is Very Good In Comm. Skills. so I Was Outnumbered.
I Thought That I Wont Be Selected So I change My Dress, And Then Started Preparing For The Nxt Exam.
Then After An Hour We Were Asked To Go To Audi, They Says That Results Will Be Announced soon.
We Reach There, Then Comes The Recruitment Manager.
Ask Who Is Siddharth Here (Here Intentions Were As If He Gonna Kick Me Out Of There)
I Raise My Hand, He Says Come With Me.
Then He Show Me The Way To A Room.
And There Was The Senior Most HR Sitting Der, He Says Then Sit Siddharth You Are Going To Be Interviewed Again.
He Was A Man Of About 40 And With A Pleasant Smile On His Face.
It Was Very Surprising To Me As I Have Never Heard That Infy Interview Twice Too.. :O
And More Over My Dress Was Un-Formal.
I Was Tensed And Runs Into Sweat.
Bt Nyhow I Managed Myself, Then Again Starts The Process Of Interviewing Mr. Pundir Second Time.
Which Last For Almost 35-40 Mins This Time, Strange Na????
Here It Goes.
