I recently participated in the Infosys System Engineer interview process, which was conducted over two days on our college campus. Here’s a detailed breakdown of my experience:

The test was well-structured and challenging, requiring strong skills in aptitude and language. Results were announced the same day, and shortlisted candidates advanced to the next stage.
