Infosys’ Chairman and Chief Mentor M.R.Narayana Murthy has described the training center, located 140 km off from India’s silicon valley, Bangalore, as the biggest corporate training facility in the world. “We are setting up the biggest corporate training facility in the world with 2,000 rooms which can house 4,000 people on a twin sharing basis. As we would be hiring roughly 12,000 people on an average, if we train 4,000 employees for four months, we should be able to turn around three batches in a year at this center,” he says.

Things you should not do in the Mysore campus: 

  • Smoking inside your hostel rooms, every room has a smoke sensor, you will be in great trouble. Get rid of these habits before coming to campus.
  • Roaming late at night on campus roads with your new girl/boyfriend.
  • Do not enter the campus gates when you are drunk, Infosys campus has the facility to carry out drinking tests in their own medical clinic. If you are found guilty, you will have to pay heavy penalties.
  • Avoid playing games on your PCs or do not get caught.
  • Do not entertain with the campus stuff, especially emergency alarms, fire alarms, etc. The campus has a full arrangement of CCTV cameras to record your activities.
  • For Interns, Do not give your ID card to your friends to swipe in attendance on your behalf. It is a sin there. If caught, you will have to pay a high penalty for this.

** I have got queries on whether Infosys pays for your flights/or travel. You need to reach the campus on your own and Infosys does not pay for your flights. Check flights here.

  • How will be the career growth at Infosys,if joined as a BPO.
    Recently am selected,and will recieve my offer letter soon

    • Hi Geethu, Apologies I may not be the right person to answer this. You will need to check with some one who is in BPO as BPO is totally a different unit.

  • I got selected in campus recruitment conducted on Jan 2015 , Some of my friends got mail from infosys asking for documents (10th , PUC & All currently available BE marks Cards) all those who got the mail have a aggregate from 65-70% , have an aggregate of 76% i didnt get it nor did anyone with >70% aggregate , why is that SIr ?

    • Hi Nithin, Infosys has minimum qualification percentage/grade criteria for recruitment process. Yes you are right folks having <70% will have got mail to submit documents. It is just verification process as Infosys just want to know that folks have given their correct percentage and not given incorrect percentage/grades just to meet minimum criteria to be part of recruitment process. If so, their training will be cancelled now itself rather than inviting them to Mysore campus first and then doing cross verifications and then sending them back home.

      • Thank You Sir, I had another Question even after a lot of research on the internet I couldn't arrive at an answer. The question is :- What are the job levels at infosys whats the criteria to move from one job level to another ? is it just experience or performance ? Also How much is the pay for different job levels? . Thanks in Advance SIr.

        • Hi Nithin, Once you join Infosys you will be joined as System Engineer Trainee(Stipend 13K in hand) or if joining as Intern( then 4K). After completing your training you will be on probation period for 1 year and your job Profile will be System Engineer(In hand Salary 22.9K). After 1 year your designation will be same as System Engineer but your salary will be 28K (Plus Incentive if any). Then you will have 1 year to earn some credits to change your job profile to Senior System Engineer. Yes your appraisals depends on your performances, if its good then you can easily Promoted. But in starting you have to wait atleast 2 years to become SSE. Things go in same way for higher level as well.

          • I was also told my package will be 3.25 LPA are they referring to the training period or later? you said during training they pay only 13k per month in hand salary , what numbers do they actually state (including taxes) ?! Thanks in advance sir!!

          • Hey Nithin, Yes you will be given 13K stipend per month. Once you complete your training and join as Employee, you will be given 22.9K in hand salary as you will be on Probation period for 1 year. After one year, you will get 28.6K salary in hand :)

          • Thank you sir for the reply !!! I am Joining as a software engineer trainee :) Sir , are our laptops , external hard drives and such digital electronics equipment's allowed inside the hostels we stay in during training in Mysore campus ? How is the food there in Mysore campus?

          • No, laptops or any kind of storage devices are not allowed inside the campus. For food, there are different vendors for North and South Indian foods. You can choose whatever you want.

    • You will be asked to give your three preferences during training. It is likely that you will get your posting in 1st preference or maximum among your 3 preferences.

      • after training can i give the jaipur branch in my preference for posting after training

        • Yes, though they will ask you to give preference other than Chandigarh, Gurgaon and Jaipur as they are very small DC's and requirements are low. But if you want Jaipur, fill it.. you will definitely get. (As we were also asked not to fill these preferences but whosoever filled got Chandigarh and Jaipur :) )

  • When the joining of 2015 batch will start, as i had been started with my initial training in college itself..

    • It purely depends on business requirements and Mysore campus capacity. You will get a mail regarding same at least one month prior joining.

      • good morning sir..i have selected in campus selection on feb 23rd2015…my friends got mails from your company…but i have not received any kind of mails from your company…sir please verify and give me the response…

          • Hi Meghana, Apologies. Your question was overlooked as I got similar question from many folks. I replied to them but somehow I missed to reply you individually.

            Regarding your question, I was Intern and we did not get any login credentials prior joining. But I asked my colleague (who joined as trainee) and he said this has nothing to do with your placement. You just need to login to your TALENTACQUISITION. This is just for record purpose for Infosys.

            Let me know if you have any further doubts.

          • Thanks a ton fr ur rply sir....nd no need to feel guilty.... one more questn sir aftr logging in the status of the form is mentnd as In process,as you said that this is nthng to do with our placement.....so if i do not access it is thr any prblm.....???

          • Meghana, you were selected on campus or off campus ? As per my discussion with colleague, you have to update your detail in TALENTACQUISITION.

  • Sir, I got selected in Infosys through campus drive in starting of 7thsem.. I never got a back, bt in 7sem, I got a back in one of a subject unexpectedly.. I have applied for rechecking.. i want to know that how vl it effect my placement.! vl they still consider me or not?

    • You should not have active back at the time of joining. As you have applied of rechecking and you clear it then no worries :)

      • Sir, i m really worried bcs if there is 'no change' after rechecking.. then i could clear this backlog in next semester bcs as per the university rules odd sem backlog could be cleared in odd sem.. so it wud be cleared by dec-jan.. bt infy expected trainee date wud be around june-july..
        so accrndng to you, will they allow or not.?

        • Hmmm that will be a bit difficult. Else you can take extend your joining date by some XYZ reasons. (Also one of my friend did not come for internship and after 4 months he got mail from Infosys if he wants to join as trainee in next batch. Though it is not reliable way)

  • Hello sir, I hv gt a mail frm TALENTACQUISITION mentioning my Id and password for logon to infosys career site, it state some application form n some data in it . But sir i m nt able to understnd it ,can u plz make me undrstnd abt this.....plz sir...

  • Hello sir,
    I got selected in infosys drive in chandigarh on 19& 20 feb and i am pursuing bca now .I just wanna know is when the training in mysore campus will start i mean in which month

    • Hi Lovekesh, It depends on the business requirements and you will be intimated by mail with your offer letter stating the date of joining. :)
