I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Infosys (Pune) in Dec 2009
Interview
Infosys first takes a written aptitude test. Based on the result they call you for a 1:1 interview. (I am talking about off campus). The result was given by the end of the day. Candidates who were selected were asked to come for the interview next day. Interview was Puzzles and HR.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Suppose you are going from a jungle in your jeep. One of the wheel comes off its axel. All the wheels have 4 nut each to hold on to the axel. You dont have any mechanic shop near by. The place is dangerous so you cant go walking. How will you fix your car and resume your journey.
L3 interview:
Pretty inefficient process, with certain people having to wait 6+ hours, and I heard of one person who waited an entire day and had to come again the next day.
Interview itself was relatively standard,
stage 1: Asking leetcode mediums and expecting optimal solution, then moving to core cs concepts like oops and sql.
stage 2: Diving into projects, with questions on the tougher side, like specifics about the architecture of docker.
