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.

hi admin … I have some queries regarding my service agreement
do I have get notarized agreement from my place or will get it done in Mysore campus
Hi RK,
During joining, parents are allowed just inside the campus (in a food court near main gate). But during training, if u want to show campus to your parents den you have to apply in system to approve visitors whom you escort. For economic places, I am also oblivious. You must have provided with list of hotels , you can opt for one which is nominal. Breakfast is till 10 am and lunch is till 2 pm. You will have lunch break for more than 1 hour(depends on lecturer). General Timings are from 9 -6:30. But it may vary.
Hi anu,
Ya you can bring both offer letter just for be in safer side. You will be free in evening after 6 or 7. Then if u have dat energy than u can go for gym as well. During starting days u will be free around 5. But when you will have your tests den u may have to be in lab till 11 pm for preparation. So u hv to manage all these things. Ya there is store for clothing and one departmental store where you can buy stuff.
hello admin i have my doj on 6th october.U have provided all the necessary information in d above written posts. thnks for dat. i want to ask some 2-3 things:-
1. Are d parents allowed with us in the campus just for a visit?
2. Suggest some good economic places near by campus for stay(as parents are not provided with accomodation in the campus)?
3.what about the breakfast and lunch timings(duration of breaks)?
4. what are the class timings every day?
Hi admin,
my date of joining is on 15th September, this is my extended doj. Should i bring both my offer letters i.e.,the first one i got and the revised offer letter?
also, are the gyms in the campus convenient with trainers?
is it possible to find time to hit the gym everyday?
are there proper stores
to get clothes and shoes in case of any necessity?
It is generic profile. Every trainee joined as System Engineer. After training when you will be posted to ur location, only then u will come to know in which department you are.
hello a
dmin….
I have one question here that I got selected as system engineer…..is that profile related to bpo field or a software developer field.
plz reply
thanks for the help and time
You will be getting 13k-14k in hand after all deductions.
I can refer general subjects but can not provide study material, it is subjected to copyright.
I think u should go with your original name which is in documents/certis records so that you dnt hv any problm while documents verification process during induction. Check with HR once regarding d same.
How much amount will be deducted from salary towards accommodation on a monthly basis?
can u pls provide some study material b4 joining(for cs students joining as system engineer)??????
n what should I write in service agreement… written as in offer letter
I have get selected off campus … yes I have provided candidate id … and I just mailed to them about the mistake …
You were shortlisted from your campus drive or off campus drive. and during recruitment process u wouod have been provided a candidate id. In registration if candidate id is mapped to sangeeta, and in offer letter same unique candidate id is mapped to sangeetha,then it is mistake at their end. You need not to worry just drop an email or contact HR whom you have to report.
hi admin … actually in my offer letter spelling of my name is written as sangeetha swain instead of Sangeeta swain … will it be OK .. if not what should big do
Yes preferences will be considered and marks scored is also considered. You will have high chances of getting your preferences if you score good n high scores. But finally the decision is made out as per business requirements. If at certail location, business requirements are high n crucial then you will be posted at that location irrespective of your preferences and scores.
What is the probability of getting posted of our first preference. Does marks scored at the time of training plays important role??
Experience will be counted but as BPO not as in development or ADM.
Hey please reply..am worried about it! Waiting for your response..
Did nt u find anything regarding accomodation in instruction for trainees and or in offer letter ? 😮 Contact ur respective HR if u r nt still sure about accomodation.
hi admin …. I have got offer of employment , instruction for trainee and service of agreement PDF file …
Did nt you get any other document along with offer letter or check in FAQ’s. ? Rest accomodation is dere for all trainees so dnt wry much.
Hey..I am of CS branch and gt placed in Infosys BPO as a systems engineer. I want to ask whether in a BPO this profile works same as that of limited and also whether my experience will be counted??
hi admin … I didn’t any such accommodation letter attached with my offer letter …. that’s y am
confused whether I will get accommodation or not … please reply soon
No it is not mandatory to have passport at the time of training. But then u will need to have passport. So apply for passport whenever you get chance. As during training u will be at Mysore, u ll not get chance to apply for it. After training, based on business requirements, n preferences you will get allocation. if u want to be at North, fill it ( but Chandigarh is small DC, u ll not have as much explore).
Hi, my doj is 8 september and my querry is that what if someone has no passport since, it was written mandatory in the offer letter and one more thing, what is the life after this training, where they relocate you because i am very concerned about the location being a north indian.
Okay,thanks that’s great to know. My offer letter mentions a training period of 3 months but I’ve come across articles(on the internet of course, so can’t really vouch for their correctness:D) about New Infosys Mysore Training Format and Assessment which mention how all training has been reduced to 3 months, hence the doubts. 🙂
Hi ,
Infosys provides several training programme. Some are regular trainings and some are fast trainings. Usually training is for 6 months for normal trainees , 4-6 months for interns and several other programme. So check in ur offer letter, duration of ur training. So u will be undergo training in different stream or stream with less/change subjects if its less duration training. For other query, if u have got offer letter dat means ur training is confirmed. Bt still for safer side ask ur TPO or HR for the apllication status.

Hi! I had applied for Infosys Spark IT program and have received the training offer letter. I have a few queries.
1. Are we going to have the same training/facilities that the other trainees/employees (basically the ones with job guarantee) will have or will it be different?
2. Even though I’ve got the training offer letter, my application status on their site still shows “In process”. Should I be worried?
3. Is this a brand new program or has it been going on for sometime and was just renamed? Cuz I am unable to find any FAQs or any information about it and i have so many questions. :'(
I tried calling them but nobody picked up nor did they respond to my mail.
It would be awesomesauce if you could answer these questions as I’m going sick with worry. Thanks. 🙂
Hi sangeeta,
Yes Infy provides accomodation for trainees. But still refer your offer letter for same.
hi m sangeeta.. recently I have got selected in Infosys as operation executive as trainee now.. I have to report to Infosys mysore on 8th September .. just want to know will I get accommodation over there
Ahhhh North 😉 You will get easily bus from Bangalore to Mysore Bus stand. Then there are local buses directly for infosys. or if u r many people, book a personal vehicle for Infy directly. N u ll get 13k-14k in hand during training. Its upto you how much u spend on fooding n misc.
Hello Admin,
A query to u…
My Joining date is 8 sept,2014 and we are supposed to reach the campus a day before,So could you please let me know the way to reach Infy Campus Mysore from Bangalore as I am coming from North India…
One more question after making all the expenses such as accommodation, fooding, and other misc. expenses keeping in mind that one spend as economically as he could , how much could be saved from the salary of 17k??
Its an important question because this is what we all are there for.. please reply .. thanks
Try to have medical tests from the hospitals mentioned in list. Find a near by hospital or hospital in nearby city which is mentioned. No infy does not terminate, but you will have to undergo retests then.
Is it ok if we do medical checkup from the hospitals which are not mentioned in the list??
Does infosys terminate the candidate during the training period if the aggregate marks are not obtained ??
No,you will have to pay penalty if you will leave job after training. Rest, penalty will be in ur offer letter or service agreement. You need to carry certis (original as well as photocopies), Medical certi, service agreement, NSR, passport sized photos n 1 stamp sized photograph. Plus it will also be mentioned in offer letter.
Hi admin,
Thanks for last answers…….
I have one more question in my mind.
can i leave the job after training and i do not want to give their money back to them.Is it possible?
And what document should i have in my hand before joining Infosys?
Hello Prabhjot ,
I am from Jind(Haryana) and from where you are?
Ya it can be done in mysore campus as well 🙂
the pos office is not available in our city.moreover,i have completed the online registration i just have to visit a pos office.is that pos office available inside the mysore campus?approx how much time duration the company will provide for ITpin submittion?
ok, thank you 🙂
Stream will be decided during induction. Company ask for certain certis n documents before joining. You must have/will have all these information in your offer letter.
Hello!!
I am from EEE stream, In which software techniques that i am going under training. And job is not guaranted for us. what is this NSR?? why medical certificate??
No company does nt ask fr ITPIN immediately, but u have to give it in certain period of time. So try to have it with you when you will go Mysore. NSR registration hardly takes an hour. Plus u ll have to wait for your IT pin after your NSR registration is complete. It will be provided to you on your registered email-id after several days.
Might be , bt company will communucate with you through your email-id( its official as well as reviewable). Make sure your email id is correct. If so, then ask your colleagues(who were in selection list) if anyone of them has got offer letter from company or not. If not then last option is ur TPC only. If TPC is not doing anything, get HR numbers whosover communicate with ur college or gave selection list and then directly communicate to them.
and yeah, one more thing, My mobile number entered in database is wrong so, is it a big issue ??
hmmm ok, though i had a word with my TPC, bt nothing special came out.
Anyways thank you for your help and time 🙂 🙂
Could we complete our nsr registration in the mysore campus itself.Will
the company ask our ITPIN no. immediately after joining.
