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.

Helli admin

Yes, then you will have a small training session on L&D. It will be of 1-2 weeks.
Hello sir…after successful completion of internship, will there be any other training?
ok sir thank u 🙂
Yes, they will surely allowed you 🙂 But laptops are not allowed inside campus.
Hello Sir !! Will they permit me to attend my final review of my project at college when my intern is going on? I hav my intern date scheduled on Feb16. Are laptops allowed to be used inside hostels?
Thank u Sir for ur quick reply 🙂
No problem. And it depends on the team dedicated for handling new joinings. We can’t predict it in advance.
Sorry for bothering you so much but is this for sure that I’ll get next mail and if yes then within what time I’ll get that?
Yes you can take extension. With offer letter you will be given with different email where you can contact if you want to extend your date of joining. Just drop an email.
My joining date is Feb 16,2015 but right now my post graduation is running as well and I have my regular classes for this semester.If I ask infy to extend my joining date..what will be the response??
If you have valid reason than you can request your respective HR/Batch Owner to grant you leaves. They will surely provide you. But I don’t think they will provide you leaves for two weeks. You may miss your module if you go on leave for one or two weeks. Rest depending upon the reason they will provide you appropriate leaves.
During training in case if I need to go back home for one or two weeks.Then is there any provision for taking a leave.
Sorry I didn’t get you. Can you please elaborate a bit as take off in what sense 😮
Hello admin
May I know as an intern can we take off during training??
Yes your check in date is a day prior your joining date 🙂
You will get a mail stating your check in timings.
Sir I just want to ask you that can we reach the campus a day prior to the date of joining…my joining date is on 9th feb
Yes, there will be a bond of one year. You should not have any active backlogs prior joining.
Hi Mr.Admin..
Is there any bond that we have to sign that we have to work for infosys once got trained…if so how many years…and what is the elegiblity criteria whether the student had backlogs during the college and cleared can also apply…could u pls clarify this…?
Yes you will be easily able to grab it and clear all modules as you are from IT background. Tests will be from given PPTs and Study materials only. Practice regularly you will earn good grades.
How will be the internships ? Its mentioned that its a fast track training . So will I be able to cope up with the mentioned subjects soon and learn it? I come from an IT backround.
No, it is not allowed in whole campus itself.
whoa you replied to each comment.
I wanted to know about the ban on laptops. aren’t they allowed atleast in our hostel rooms.
Don’t worry. You did not mention wrong cgpa. It is acceptable. Difference is just 0.03. If you were on edge of minimum eligibility criteria then it could cause a problem. But it does not matter now. You will get a mail stating all the documents that you need to submit. Usually you will have to take all your original Certificates/Marksheet with min 3 photostat copies of each Certificate/Marksheets. They will verify photostat copies with original one and will give you back original certificates.
You will soon get accommodation and guideline mails

Ya admin im a systems engineer trainee.. then no problem for passport na??
If you are regular trainee not a lateral one and joining Mysore campus for training then Passport is not required until you complete your training at Mysore. You will have more than 4 months to submit your passport.

Hi, Have you undergone any placement drive conducted by Infosys? You need to get placed in Infosys for this.
