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.

Niti says

You will have to study those PPTs in labs itself. You can stay there till 11 PM. So you will have to manage.
kshitij says

Admin says
Chandigarh ??? Infosys don’t have any training Center at Chandigarh as such. Infy has a small DC there. I think you need to re-confirm and get more clarification on this.
alisha says

Bhuvana says
thank u admin, hope i’ll receive my offer of employment soon.
Admin says
Hi,
1) Check-in timing will be intimated in email itself . It will not be in offer letter. Just cross check your email again. However, if your doj is 5 Jan, you need to report there on 4 Jan. Timing is not an issue, you can check in at any time. These are just for your convenience.
2) If you are joining as Trainee, you need to have medical certificate prior joining. Hospital list should have been provided by the company, If still you did not get it and want it now, i will provide you.
3) Not mandatory, but your photograph should be properly visible and identifiable.
4) You will get 13K in hand . You need to pay for food from your own. Company provides only accommodation.
Bhuvana says

Indranil Das says
Hi…my DOJ is 5th Jan,2015 as a System Engineer. But they didn’t mention about any details about medical tests.Is medical test before joining is necessary?
Admin says
For internship it is 4K.
Sanjeet says
Thank u very much..one more thing what about stipend?
Admin says
Hi ,
Was there any announcement/criteria in recruitment process that percentage should be =>65 ? I think Infy has such criteria. If yes, then you need to get in touch with your HR or POC for the time being to get it clarified.
Admin says
No you will be given dummy projects. There will be no seperate batch for only mtech students. BE (Btech) students and Mtech students will be in same batch ( That was same case with us). Peoject group will be of max 4 students where Btech and Mtech students can be on same project.
Sanjeet says
Hi admin,
I m an m.tech CSIT studentand m recently placed in infy.Got a mail about infosys winter internship program for final sem students.My question is that will infosys provide m.tech projects to us and if yes howmany people in a group and does stipend vary from m.tech to b.tech guys during internship? Do reply
karthikeyan says
I applied to spark it training program…i got the offer letter..but the problem is while applying I hav 65% before 7th sem. After I got certificates only I came to know that my percentage is 62.7%..if there any chance for termination!.
Admin says
Spark IT is new foundation program carried out by Infosys. Usually training varies from 6 month(for normal trainees) to 4 months(for interns). This program may include concise subjects and modules. Undergoing this training program does not guarantee employment at Infosys or outside.

lakshmi says
hi
i’m selected for infosys spark it program 2014 & my doj is jan 5th. i’m worried whether infosys provide job at end of training even after passing all the assignments during training. plzz help me
Admin says
You can go home but only in weekends. During weekdays you will have to mark your attendance so you may not be able to go home. Still if you have some serious reasons, you can go home after informing your Batch Owner and HR.
Admin says
For internship stipend is 4K
Admin says
You can go home in weekends 🙂 No one will ask 🙂
satwik says
Hello admin . I stay around 500kms frm the Mysore Infosys campus. During training will I get time to come home in the middle or their will be lot of assignments and exams??/
jamsheed says
Hello admin..whats the stipend during training cum internship??
Gowtham says
Can I go to my Home during weekends or I should stay in the hostel during Internship?
Admin says
No, there will not be any issue at all. With offer letter, you will be provided with certain emails that you can contact if you have any queries which include information update email contact. So you can change the information. Still if you don’t get any such mail.. I will provide you 🙂
Admin says
Test will be as per modules that you will undergo. These are pre defined steps, you can not choose anything. Yes, after posting, many engineers will be on bench until they map to any project.
Admin says
There are food coupons available but you will have to purchase that coupon booklet. (It is just for your convenience that you will not need to stand in queue for long time in food courts)
rohan says
not even food.? i read abt the food coupons nd food allowance! that they vl provide.!
Anonymous says
How test are conducted during training and they will give the subject for selecting or we have priority to choose ?and after training some engineers are unbenched….
Akshay says
I have got 78.5% in 10th standard but during online application form submission(campus placement for freshers) i have mistakenly entered 77.5%.
The form later submitted to person who took my interview.
I cleared my interview and yet to receive call letter. If i receive a call letter is there will be any problem during the time of joinning or during Induction Program.
Admin says
No man, Infy will not give any additional facilities. You will have to spend from your stipend itself.
Rohan says
During Winter Internship Program, infy vl be paying stipend of 4k nd free accommodation.. what else we vl get.? Free food coupons? or Mobile Bill.? or free local taxi travelling.? etc.?
or all this we have to spend from stipend of 4k that v are getting.?
Admin says
Its totally fine if you don’t have passport now at time of joining training program. But I would suggest you to apply for it before joining Mysore so that before postings you have your passport.
prabha says
Hi I dont have a passport will it be a issue ,thouh i have PAN and voter ID…. plz sugest accoerdingly.
Admin says
After submitting final project at Infosys you will be getting internship certificate from Infosys. No matter if you join Infosys in future or not. Though there must be some amount mentioned if you leave company, but I dont think Infosys will demand that. ( Two of my friends leave company and they did not give single penny 🙂 )
Harish says
In this case, is there any service bond applicable? If I leave Infosys say after six month from the date of employment i.e. after successful completion of my internship, what will be the amount I have to pay to Infosys for getting my relieving and experience certificate? Thanks
Mohit Arora says
Before Training we are supposed to submit the Service Agreement that we will be working with the Company after successful completion of training. But before Internship, you don’t need to submit such Agreement and you can leave the company after competing your internship. Plus you are doing internship as per college training program. You are not graduate yet and not wasting time on training after completing your graduation. But trainees have completed their graduation and now they will need 6 more months to be an employee and you will be an employee after your internship just after completing your graduation. Hope this might have cleared your doubt.
Gowtham says
Sir,
Why the package for interns and training varies too much(4k vs 15k) as We are provided with same accomadation for both training and interns.Any valid Reason???
Bhavya Jain says
Thanks!
Also would we be going through the regular training as well after this winter intern is over?
Admin says
Group will be of max 4 people and will be random. Project will also be given by Infy and can be any topic regardless of what u hv learnt.
jamsheed says
Hello admin..can you kindly tell me what kind of projects will they give during internship or training??. How many members will be there in one group. And can we make our own group??
Admin says
The joining date solely depends on the requirements. or whenever there will be release of previous batches. Then new batches will be started to accomodate. And The project will be distributed randomly. A few people gete live projects.
