Candidate Information: In my 7th semester, I applied for Infosys off-campus hiring-2025 through the TPO. This was an off-campus hiring which involved female candidates from both Telugu states. The candidates need to register themselves using the link. This drive, which involved around 6-8 colleges, was exclusively for female candidates. After registering, I was shortlisted for the online assessment. Overview of Interview Process: Online Assessment Interview
Round 1 Online Assessment The online Assessment was conducted through TASK for 120 minutes which included 6 parts: Logical Ability (25 mins 15 Ques) Technical Ability (35 mins 10 Ques) Verbal (20 mins 20 Ques) Pseudo code (10 mins 5 Ques) Puzzle Solving (10 mins 4 Ques) English Grammar (10 mins 5 Ques) English Writing (10 mins 1 Ques) All the questions were moderate and doable. I attempted English Writing in 15 mins. Overall test time was given .There was no sectional time. This became a plus point as some sections took more time to solve. Logical Ability had questions of Alphabetical order of words. Technical ability included Profit and Loss questions also. There was sectional cut-off of 70 percent. This test happened on 5th November at Malla Reddy University. At the end of the day, I got an email. 92 students were shortlisted for
next round (Interview) I started preparing for the interview after updating the resume.
Round 2 Interview (6th November) There were many panels in the block to interview the students. Students were assigned to the panels. the panel had a single member. The member verified my ID proof and took my resume. Based on the resume, members posed questions. It included questions from technical and HR background. List of questions are here as follows: Self Introduction Explain about your project Why Infosys? Biggest challenge faced in project and life Academic Background question(EAPCET Rank) List of drives attended so far? Family Background Are you willing for higher studies/Opinion on Higher studies Any questions for the panel member? The questions are dependent on the panel member. Some of the candidates were interviewed on technical background, project more with HR background questions. Closing Note: On November 10,the results were announced and I was one among the people. It was a good experience throughout the process. Looking forward to learn more and more

About Infosys Interview Reports
This question was reported by a candidate who interviewed at Infosys. LeakCode aggregates interview reports from 10+ sources, including 1Point3Acres, Glassdoor, LeetCode Discuss, Blind, Reddit, Indeed, and Nowcoder. Each report is translated where necessary, deduplicated against existing entries, and tagged by company, role, round type, and reporting date.
Use this question as one calibration data point, not a memorization target. Companies typically rotate their question pools every 2-4 months; the exact wording of a 2024 question may differ from what you encounter today. The underlying pattern, difficulty level, and follow-up depth at Infosys are the higher-signal extractions to take from this report.
For broader preparation context, the Infosys interview process typically includes a recruiter screen, one or two technical phone screens, and a 4-5 round on-site loop covering coding, system design (at L4+ levels), and behavioral. Reports tagged on LeakCode show the round-by-round distribution and typical difficulty calibration. To browse questions filtered by round type and seniority, use the company hub linked above.
How To Practice This Type of Question
Solve similar problems on LeetCode under timed conditions (25-35 minutes per medium difficulty). The goal is pattern recognition: recognize the underlying technique (sliding window, two-pointer, BFS, memoized recursion, etc.) within 60-90 seconds of reading. Strong candidates verbalize their hypothesis out loud before coding, then iterate based on feedback. Weak candidates dive into implementation immediately, lose time on the wrong approach, and run out of time for follow-ups.
Companies update their question pools every 2-4 months. The exact wording of any given question may have been retired by the time you interview. Focus your prep on the pattern, not the specific problem. The patterns that appear in Infosys reports consistently are the ones worth investing in; one-off niche problems are not.
During Your Infosys Round
Apply the standard interview round template: clarify requirements (2-3 minutes), state your approach out loud and confirm direction with the interviewer (3-5 minutes), code with narration (15-25 minutes), test with concrete examples including edge cases (5 minutes), discuss optimization or trade-offs if time permits (5 minutes). This template is universally accepted across FAANG and adjacent companies; deviating from it produces weaker interviewer feedback signal.
The single most predictive failure mode in Infosys reports tagged "no hire": not asking clarifying questions. Interviewers are explicitly trained to weight this. Strong candidates ask 3-5 clarifying questions even on problems that look obvious; weak candidates dive into code immediately. The clarifying-question check is often the first signal recorded in the interviewer's written notes.
