ENGLISH SECTION:: 40 ques, 30 mins
V imp section, this is the eliminating section, most guys do not qualify this section’s cut off, soo pleez prcatice for verbal scetion, refer MBA stuff, not at higher level but just the most basic level.
Speed is very important for this section. 2 PASSAGES( very long, dont do them first unless u r very confident on ur verbal section)
other things: grammer correction ques, conclusion , inference deduce type of question.
choose the correct sentence question,

I did one passage at end , i attempted 3 question without reading passage even once, because 2 question were Vocab related, one was v simple.

not sure but cutoff was 50% verbal and 60 % apti

HR interview: make simple resume, prepare question like “about urself”, hobies, about infosys, current news, etc etc( u mus be knowing all that) i will tell how u answer them nicely.

Listen guys, no one is perfect neither am I, so if u could’nt figure out ur strengths , weaknesses, impressive hobbies , plez sit and think over, what u do in free time , what u do daily, every one has some good qualities no matter how small they are. study urself a lot as this will help not only in Infosys but everywhere u go for job in ur entire life.
just dont say ur strenght is hard working or I dont have any weaknesses. I mean what ever u say u must be ready to state instances from ur life and backen it up.

Rest only Confidence is needed. My Interview went like as if I was busy in discussion with my Friend. it was so nice. I said my strenghts are leam leadership and team working, as I had examples to support them , The interviewer fired Many situation like “what would u do if a person working under u does not do the work u assigned him”, “which team would u join , on eteam has all good people, other team has all bothering people”, “how u managed ur project in team”, “what u learnt when u were House captain in ur school” etc etc.

So guys, dont worry, Its vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv easy to get in INFOSYS.

Do ur best, meet u in Infosys.
