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.

  • The information provided here is very useful & want to thank you for this.
    i am a mechanical engineering student so want to ask you that if u fail to score good in tests , what will happen ?

    • Though you are from ME but if you will revise daily u ll score good in tests. Otherwise you will have more options of re-test to pass the test.

  • Hi Admin,

    Thanks for your quick reply. We did not get any offer letter at this moment. But hope that we will get it in next week. Because this part is totally managed by the authority. Actually anything is not clear before next meeting with the authority.

    Can you tell me please how many days we will get as weekend day in our training period?

    • Hi,
      Hope you will get it soon and will get clarifications on our doubts.
      Saturday and Sunday will be off throughout training.

      • Hi,

        Thanks again. It's really great that we will get two days' off per week.

        I want to know another thing. It may be confidential but if possible only then expect your answer. What's about the normal scenario of Infosys training, is it paid or unpaid? What's the scenario in case of foreign trainees?

        • Hi,

          I am oblivious to this. But as far as Indian trainees are concern, they are recruited in placement drive so training is free for them. But m not sure about foreign trainees, might be this will be same scenario for them as well.

  • Hi,
    I wanted to ask that I mistyped my DOB on the application form for the Infosys campus drive, I typed my DOB as 12-11-1993 instead of 13-11-1993.

    Also I do have a passport but I selected the no option for the passport.
    So will that be a problem? How can I correct that?

  • Hi,

    i got selected in infosys off campus held at chennai as System Engineer trainee. I have received my offer letter my DOJ is 1st DEC'14. In that mail(offer letter) my name has misspelled as SILAMBARASAN MUTHUPANDI instead of SILAMBARASAN MURUGESAN. other details are intact only my last name(father name) wrong. So kindly please give me a solution that. Is there any issue with that????

    And another question, i m from IT background. So please tell me the duration of the training.

    • Hi,

      This mistake is at your end or the company misspelled it ? I would suggest you to get in touch with your HR/ or whomsoever you have got contact details to let them know before joining. And duration will be abut 4 months if you are joining as regular trainee.

      • I have try to contact them threw mail but they didnt respond to those mail...now wat can i do for that issue????????

  • Im selected as systems engineer and im from eee background. Im intrstd to know of how the training will be and what all modules will be there? and also what do dey train for a system enginner i mean subjct(programming)?

    • Hi,

      You will have a great experience here. Study material and facilities provided here will help you to learn all the technologies, though you are from non CS background. You will be either in .NET or/JAVA stream which will be divided into modules. All schedule of modules including tests will be intimated to you once you join.

  • Hai admin,

    2. Wil I have to pay for gym,swimming pooletc. al the facilities offerd??

    4.as the campus is so big(heard from other comments)do i hav to walk al along,or wil they be enough cycles for al trainees??

    pls do reply to al questions ...

    • Hi ,

      1) Yes, accommodation will be provided a day before your joining date. You will be allotted room on your check in day itself.
      2) Yes, they will be automatically deducted from your salary. Or you will have to buy a membership card for using these facilities.
      3) You will be getting 12-13k in hand every month.
      4) Though there are cycles, but trainees ratio is more as compared to cycles. So you have to be cautious about that.

      If you have further questions, do revert.

      Thanks !!!!!

      • The amount deducted will not include the xtra facilities right??

        If i have buy membership card how much wil it cost??

        Do i have to renue it every month??

        • Yes you will have to renew it every month or it will be deducted from your stipend automatically. Membership card would cost around Rs.300/month.

          • Yup. If you did not mention In your application form that you have passport, then if you come without acknowledgement then it is also totally fine.

          • thanks for clearing my doubts..

            I have one major problem.. my passport is not applied till date..

            because in my birth certificate name is mis-spelled.. so i have to get my name changed then oly apply for passport..

            i cant get my name changed before nov 31th(reporting date)... wat shall i do now??

            pls help

          • Passport is not required while joining. You will be given enough time for making your passport. Passport will be required only if you are getting onsite job which is rare for freshers. But I would suggest to apply it once you get corrections in your birth certificate. Its better to be on safer side and keep everything ready.

  • Hi Dear,

    I am Ibrahim (Ibu) From Bangladesh. I am selected in Infosys Training which will be started from 12th January, 2015 to 24th March, 2015. Actually we some trainee have got this opportunity through the Government of Bangladesh as IT skill development.

    I am also working as a Software Engineer at this moment. But I am not sure what type of training I will get here. And in which way, they will decide it that what training they will provide us. Can I choose a Specific Area such as Programming, Software Management, Documentation etc. or I will be trained through their Pre-defined general process.

    Best regards,
    Mohammad Ibrahim (Ibu)
    Software Engineer

    • Hi Mohammad,

      Congrats, as you have been selected through the Government of Bangladesh, and currently you are working as Software Engineer. Did you get any documents/letter from the Infosys? Because for newly joined trainees, Infosys provides training in either of two streams JAVA/.NET at Mysore. But am not sure if you will be joining this program as Trainee or not. You are currently working as Software Engineer, so might be you will be either enrolling into these two streams/or any other programming practices.I would suggest you to go through the documents/joining letter offered by Infosys to have a better picture.

    • Fully formals on Monday(Tie is
      mandatory) & Tuesday(Tie is
      optional), Semi formals on Wednesday
      n Thursday , Casuals on Friday. Rest
      it will also be there in ur offer letter.

  • My training would be start on 16th Feb., 2015 as communicated by my college. I have not yet received any offer letter/communication from Infosys. Shoud I make my travel arrangement on the basis of date given by the college? Who will pay for travel expenses? Thanks

    • I would suggest you to wait for some more time as joining is in Feb and you will have to pay for you. Company does not provide travel expenses for trainess.

    • U can check in with ur friend and make sure to be in same queue and in sequence. You both will get sharing room. On the other side, u can also request the person incharge for the same.
