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.

Yes if your friend is also recruited …you can have your own two wheelers in the campus.
Hello wait for 1-2 days , if you dont get accommodation mail then contact with ur HR. and u r joining as intern or trainee? As for intern, medical tests are not required.
My joining date is 1st december… They have sent a mail that they wil send a “accomodation mail ” two weeks before joining,mentioning the joining time too. But still i haven’t recieved any mail. pls help.
Another one,I didnt get any information about medical test in offer letter.Do i have to take one pls reply soon…
so what would you suggest me, i should go for internship or training ?
and is training easier then internship(as it’s for longer duration) ?
Hello.can you please let me know whether my friends from same college can be their 2gether during training??and can we take our personal vehicles like car or bike to campus?
No you will not get both. You will have to opt one.
thnks sir. one more question sir.
actually sir this internship is optional(only for cs and it ).i mean we need to give our willingness for this then only they will provide internship.so i wanted to know is it possible that they will give us both internship(jan2015-april2015) and then training(sept2015-march2016).
Internship and Training are the two fundamental foundation programs conducted by Infosys. Internship will be of 4 months and training will be of 4-6 months. And Internship will have less subjects as compared to training. During internship stipend will be 4k whereas for training its 13k. And if Infy has decided to give you internship now not training, then you can not do anything for this unless you contact HR to delay your training but reason should be genuine. I have also done internship. If you join internship then you will be saving 4 months of your career. And can join the job as soon as you passout of your college. Ont he other hand if you go for training in Sep 2015 then you will have to arrange training at your own in any other company.
Hello, I have sent u the list of hospitals and tests to be carried out on your mail. Do revert in case of any further concerns.
Hello Protik,
yes, you can carry a tablet to the campus.
bro i am in great dilemma plz help me. i got placed in infosys through campus recruitment.its expected that training will start near September 2015 but today i got a mail from my collage that infosys is providing internship to us from jan 2015 for 4 month.
now my friends are saying that if i go for this internship then they will not provide me training which is supposed to happen on sept 2015.so i want to know is it true that both are same thing or there is an either or chose for internship and training.
plz suggest me i should go for internship or not.(if yes then will it effect my infy training )
Hello sir,
Also please help with the medical tests that are to be done and from where.??
it would be a gr8 help.
hello sir,
i am selected for the 8 dec joining.
I wanted to enquire whether I can carry a tablet or not??
Plz help.?
No that’s only. And I have sent you the hospital list. Do revert if you any further doubts.
Ya deductions will be including your hostel rent and other facilities.
It would be helpful if i get that hospitals list too,i saw in above posts only that we get this list a week before our joining,my joining is 1st dec & as i am leaving my home town on 24th nov. only due to some reasons,plz provide me with that hospital list so that i can do it beforehand.Also is there anything more we would be receiving in mails few days before joining except the 3 attachment mails which included the offer letter?
I also got offer letter from Cognizant,so while registering in NSR,I provided my future employer details as of cognizant.I got my IT pin,do i need to do something now?Or only my IT pin would matter ?
Its mentioned in our offer letter that our gross salary would be 22,500 during training,But are saying it to be only 13k ?
so much of deductions ?
Can i bring umbrella,some medicines for cold,feveretc. thre??
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.
You will be getting 13k in hand
what will be the salary during training..
Thanks i got my name changed!! Its enough if i come wth my passport acknowledgement right??
Hi, I have sent u the hospital list. Please check it and let me know if you have any further concerns.
Thanx for the details sir but they do haven’t provide any list can u plz share…
There are lots of hospitals , Infy must have provided you with the offer letter. In case if you have not got I will provide you.
Passport is not required at the time of joining. You can update passport details later on. 🙂
And can u provide the list of hospitals for medical report??
Hello Sir I want to ask you that I have applied for passport but don’t have received tat till new
So is it necessary to have passport along with me?? With the documents…
Or I can submit another document instead of it
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.
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.
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 ?
I have try to contact them threw mail but they didnt respond to those mail…now wat can i do for that issue????????
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
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.
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??
Hi,
It’s OK and Thanks.
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,
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,
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.
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.
Hi,
Hope you will get it soon and will get clarifications on our doubts.
Saturday and Sunday will be off throughout training.
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,
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.
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 ,
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 !!!!!
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.

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
