INFOSYS Placement Papers
INFOSYS PAPER ON 21st JULY 2008
HI FRIENDS,
I AM SWATHI FROM GNITS , GOT PLACED INTO INFY , N I HOPE THIS PAGE HELPS U
ALL
TEST PATTERN:
1. APTITUDE and VERBAL
2. HR
NOTE :(we were given an application form of infy we were asked to write it
before the exam had started)
APTITUDE:
All questions were of REASONING type -----30 questions (R.S Aggarwal
reasoning book is more than enough)
here time management is very important
One question was time consuming for me and
that was from the puzzle test so be prepared wid all 7 models of PUZZLE TEST
we had DATA INTETERPRETATION and as i couldnt solve the 1st question
properly i had to solve this
so dont waste time for the questions u cannot solve instead do the one which
is easier n refer (r s aggarwal quantitative aptitude for this)
mostly bar charts, tables and pi charts are given (we were given a table)
5 questions were from FIGURES
we were given 3 figures followed by a '?'
in this the 1st two figures are have some relationship b/w them n based on
that we hav to pick an answer figure which matches the 3rd figure
this was an easy one
5 questions were from SYLLOGISM
this was a bit different from wht i thought
they give 5 statements naming them a,b,c,d,e
then the answers choices were like 3 were paired eg:1)abe 2)dbe 3)aeb 4)dae
n we hav to find the pair which corretly matchs it if u do r.s aggarwal n r
perfect wid all rules of syllogism i dont thing this would b tough
5 questions were of DATA SUFFICIENCY type
i felt this was easy
the questions i remember were from mensuration,length of train,ages of
people
thts it in this part, we were not told the cutoff but i think its better to
try for atleast 20 out of 30
VERBAL:
40 questions were there
i scored 24 marks
there were 2 RCs one was of 2 pages i attempted in the last 5 min but i did
it well i believe
then we had
correction of sentences
fill in the blank with correct word
around 5to 6 passages for which we had go choose the correct summary
u hav to read these very fast
time management is very very imp. here
do not waste even one min looking here and there coz tht one min costs a
loooooooot
finally i was called my name for HR n i was on the top of the world
i actually got thru wipro also but the joy of getting into a dream company
is just great
one should definately experience it
HR:
One important thing is tht dont think tht its just HR
u should always remember tht there is one more hurdle to pass
in my 1st interview i hav learnt a lot "wht to do n wht not to do in the HR
round" so if u hav not yet been placed then first analyze why tht has
happened n try to improve on that coz there r huge oppertunities in this
world
some way or the other u can get thru once u improve on ur flaws
so be confident and dont be jelous abt the ones who hav already got its a
very bad thing
My HR round was coool
HR: come in swathi
me: yes sir
HR: cmon take ur seat
me: thank u sir (he had asked my resume and asked me to sign on it n also at
few places on the application form)
HR: so ur father works as so n so

HR: k then which was the coldest place u saw

HR: so would there b snow fall fall
me: (me sadly)no sir yet to see such a place once
HR: do u like travelling coz of ur fathers transferable job
me: no sir even otherwise i never miss a chance to travel
HR: he gave me 3 topics and asked me to speak on 1
me: spoke abt supermarket (he was impressed)
HR: is there an incident in ur life whr u hav improved or had to changed ur
work culture
me: said
HR: then she asked me abt my paper presentation(it was on face detection
which comes under AI)
HR: how would u explain to a 7th class kid abt AI
me: i definately had an answer for tht so i answered n i think he was happy
wid my answer
HR: k swathi there r 6 matchsticks here arrange them so that "each one
touches one another"
me : i could make 5 to touch each other but not the 6th one
HR: then he asked me to make 4 equlateral triangles with those sticks

to leave it aside
