Company Profile :

Infosys Technologies Ltd. (NASDAQ: INFY) provides consulting and IT services to clients globally - as partners to conceptualize and realize technology driven business transformation initiatives. With over 75,000 employees worldwide, we use a low-risk Global Delivery Model (GDM) to accelerate schedules with a high degree of time and cost predictability.

As one of the pioneers in strategic offshore outsourcing of software services, Infosys has leveraged the global trend of offshore outsourcing. Even as many software outsourcing companies were blamed for diverting global jobs to cheaper offshore outsourcing destinations like India and China, Infosys was recently applauded by Wired magazine for its unique offshore outsourcing strategy — it singled out Infosys for turning the outsourcing myth around and bringing jobs back to the US.

Infosys provides end-to-end business solutions that leverage technology. We provide solutions for a dynamic environment where business and technology strategies converge. Our approach focuses on new ways of business combining IT innovation and adoption while also leveraging an organization's current IT assets. We work with large global corporations and new generation technology companies - to build new products or services and to implement prudent business and technology strategies in today's dynamic digital environment.

INFOSYS receives lakhs of resumes every year and they can offer call letter for around 10,000 people only for every test. So sometimes it depends on luck also.

But here are few tips that may maximize your chance of getting call.

1) For INFOSYS, following details are mandatory. Without these, they will simply throw your resume in to trash. They won't even look at other details. So make sure that these details are in 1 st page of resume and clearly visible.

-- Full Name, Mail ID, Contact Address, Phone Number
-- Date of Birth
-- Academics of 10 th, Inter, Grad, PostGrad (Write Aggregate Percentages. Don't write percentages of each Semester. They won't calculate what is the average percentage.)

2) Try to send your resume every 15 days or 30 days. (Especially send it when they announce Off-Campus in news papers.)

3) Write a small covering letter saying that you did not attend INFOSYS test till now and would like to get a call for next possible test. (Or if you did not attend in last 9 months, mention that.)

4) See to it that your resume is proper. Please refer following Resume Writing Tips published in Freshersworld.com.

Most Importantly, BE PREPARED for the test even when you apply. Generally INFOSYS tries to give a call for all eligible candidates. So you may suddenly get a call and then you should NOT postpone it. If you postpone, you will never know when you will get a call again
