Hi.
I am Arka Chakrabortty, final year Mechanical Engineering student from Govt College Of Engineering & Textile Technology, Berhampore, West Bengal. On Nov 3-4th Infosys conduct a pool Campus drive with 4 Govt colleges in West Bengal in GCELT &GCECT campus, Kolkata.
First of all I would like to thanks IndiaBix, trust me before campus drive I have only go through with IndiaBix questions & T.I.M.E study materials (as I am a CAT aspirant & was a student @ T.I.M.E).
Well on the day 1st there was a PPT of Infosys for about 1 hr, listen very carefully though it was very boring but @ PI round interviewer may ask some questions from this section.
2nd was Aptitude round (no negative marking :D but there was sectional cut off)
A) Arithmetic Reasoning (25 questions - 15 minutes) difficulty - easy :D
B) Mathematical Critical Reasoning & Logical Reasoning (10 questions - 35mins) difficulty-not very easy, just you need lots of practise.
C) Communicative English (40 questions - 35 minutes) difficulty- not easy, time management is very important in this section. Many students failed in this section. There was two huge paragraph of total 10 marks (5+5), leave it 1st , if you have time at last then tick some of it.
**for aptitude section don\'t panic seeing the questions, stay very cool. For this you need to give lots of test at your home. Practice a lot from IndiaBix.
Due to some problem, they could not able to declare the result on 3rd Nov. So it came out @ next day morning @ 8:30 am, at that time I was sleeping :P cause whole night I could not able to sleep well. 276 students appeared for aptitude section 60 were selected for interview round.
So @ 9:30am interview (HR+PI combined) start & my turn came @ 1:30pm.

HR: Yes. Please come, have a sit.
