Now i understand that chances are very dull for the extention of my stay at the guest house. Can you tell me that whether one week stay at B'lore to find a decent flat on rent basis is sufficient or not. I am worried if i donot get a flat in a week. Does Infy pay for the Joining bonus i.e. my first joining travel expenditure to B'lore.

Dear Bharahtraj,

Finding a place in Bangalore is not at all difficult. Finding a good place is quite difficult. In Infosys, we have a discussion forum just like PG. its called Bulletin Board. there are many sections in BB, and one of them is classfieds. you can find many ppl here advertising for a house on rent. you can also meet many guys here who are looking for a roomie. so all you got to do is get in touch and pay a visit to the house.
And just like any other shopping, u will always find a better house once you settle into one.

Thats rightly said Bharathraj! Its a never ending loop.
Well also suggest me about the joining bonus. Is it paid by the company like other comanies?
Thanks & Regards,
i know of my friends who have done some course in a certain institute in Pune. they told me that the course was really helpful and the certificate given by the institue has quite a lot of value. im not able to recollect the name though. sorry about that.
it also has some kind of an entrance test to select the candidates they admitted.
you can probably ask around for that.

You can go for CDAC Pune.

a good bet is to look for PG accomodations. Quite a lot exist in K'mangala and JP Nagar areas. I stayed in one for a month before moving into a rented house myself.
Joining bonus -- No
But u can avail the loan against salary (1 month) at 0 interest rate.

hmm, Feb is a really long time. have you contacted the HR guys? if not, please do that. dont hesitate in calling up the Bangalore corporate office, they must be able to give you some information, or atleast guide you to a place where your query can be answered. do keep us informed with the progress
Bharath

Dear Friends,
I have received an joining offer from Infy B'lore. I belong to Ahemdabad. For an interview, I went to Pune from Ahemdabad. Now Infy HR says that they dont have any policy for Job Band C to reimburse the amount which I spent on train tickets from the interview.
Kindly Suggest.

my good friend, if the Infy guys have some policy, we cant do a thing about it. whats the point in suggesting if the finance guys are not gonna approve.

P.S - sorry for being blunt, but a train ticket from Ahmedabad to Pune, shldnt be so expensive that you want it reimbursed.
hello, i've been selected for infosys in august 2008(presently doing my final year, engineering).
my seniors were called in july, 2008 for training at infy.but since i have an arrear my results for the final semester are expected only in august, 2009
is there a possibility of infosys extending my date of joining/ will they just cancel out my offer?
if there is a procedure to extend my date of joining, what is it?

There isnt a formal procedure for extending the joining date. having said that its not impossible. you have to fake a treatment or come up with an excuse like sisters marriage. rememeber, you will be cross checked and if they have strong proof that you have faked it, then they can send you back home.
considering the current economic situation, there is very little chance that you will be called for training immediatly after your completion. there are enough backlogs right now that they will wish to clear first.

I have given a joining on 5th Jan 09. After that once I finalizes the accommodation in B'lore i will have to bring my family to B'lore. Since Infy says that they cannot grant any leave in probation period for shifting. How Come? Or else how will I shift my family if I donot get the the leave for shifting..
Kindly suggest!!!

or if all else fails you might have to take a loss of pay leave.

Yes i understand Bharat. but in case of outstation candidate, do the project managers consider to grant a week or 10 days leaves? Since i have to bring the complete household from Ahemdabad.

Depends on how much you can convince your PM

Hi
I was selected in Infosys in April 2007(graduated in 200
& supposed to join in 2008. I haven't yet recieved the joining date that means i wouldn't be joining in 2008. I didn't look for other jobs as i was preparing for CAT but i performed worse( compared to last year's 95.55%ile). Earlier freshers helpline no. was replying that all the recruits would be recruited till december but now they havew started saying that it may exend to march. Given the scenario of It industry in general i don't think i will make it to another job and infy seems to be playing with us. Its depressing as 16000 out of 18000 recruits have already been inducted and remaining 2000 are left wait for so long. I understand that they are "Ethical" and will surely give us joining but with 7 months of gap in the CV already i have left all the hopes from infy.
What should o do now?

Hi,
I can understand the frustration that you might be going through. However, please don't get disheartened. Infy will certainly call you one day, but then you will have to get Information from the numbers given by Bharat. Moreover, if the call is getting extended, join some other company. Even a BPO will do if you are not selected in a company of your choice. And when Infy gives a call leave BPO and join it. Make your steps fast.
I have seen recently a friend of my friend who didn't had a job for nearly more than 1 year got a job and within two months was sent to Indonesia. Now he is happy. But he didn't sit at home waiting for everything to go fine. So, you will have to pave a way for yourself. Keep on searching for jobs. Subscribe to some Freshers group for newsletters.
All the best!!
