Founded in 1994 by Jeff Bezos, a former hedge fund manager, Amazon is now \u2013 apart from being a retailer of household goods &#8211; an entertainment company, a publisher, the creator of a home assistant and a newly minted grocer.<\/span><br><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif\">But first and foremost, it\u2019s a company that relies on technology. Be it Prime Air, which is designed to safely deliver packages to customers in 30 minutes or less using drones, or its latest patented technology, a drone that can carry a battery charge for electric cars and deliver them to cars out on the road that need them en route, Amazon\u2019s tech has put the behemoth on the road to the future. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif\">A job at Infosys provides great training opportunities, professional development, the opportunity to work on projects belonging to reputed MNCs, a friendly work environment, and the chance to engage with a diverse workforce. The recruitment process hinges around two rounds of interview\u2014technical and HR. You may be asked to appear for an Infosys video conference interview if you are based in a distant location. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif\"><strong>INTERVIEW PROCESS <\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif\">The recruitment process begins with a person from the talent acquisition team calling you for a preliminary interview. The HR team will then schedule a technical interview and inform you about the details on email. You will subsequently receive a video call on the appointed day to speak with the interview panel. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif\"><strong>Sample questions <\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif\">The questions asked at video interviews are no usually different from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.monsterindia.com\/career-advice\/tips-to-ace-the-3-step-recruitment-and-selection-process-of-infosys\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">face-to-face interactions<\/a> . In keeping with the general pattern of Infosys interviews, you will be asked questions based on your CV, area of specialization, work experience, projects handled and your role in them. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif\">Depending on your specialization, these previously asked questions will give you some idea about what to expect: <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif\">\u2022 Describe your major. <\/span><br><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif\">\u2022 Describe your past leadership experiences. <\/span><br><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif\">\u2022 What programming platforms have you worked with?<\/span><br><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif\">\u2022 Questions on Java.<\/span><br><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif\">\u2022 OOP<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif\"><strong>Preparing for a video interview<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif\">A video interview provides the convenience of interacting with the recruiter without having to travel, but heavy reliance on technology also means that it is susceptible to potential pitfalls. Checking your tech in advance is, therefore, crucial to preparing for a successful video interview. Also ensure that the room you plan to sit is quiet and interruption-free and, since the area behind you will be visible, the backdrop is neat and clean. Review the lighting so that your face is adequately illuminated. Dress as if you are going for a live interview. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif\"><strong>Handling awkward situations<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif\">A video interview can lead to several awkward moments including the inability to understand questions due to a patchy phone\/internet network, frequent disconnections, and sometimes, your inability to see the interview panel because they prefer not to switch on their cameras (while you are expected to switch on yours). In case of poor network or frequent disconnections, you could request them to reschedule the interview. If the interviewer prefers not to switch on his\/her camera, don\u2019t fuss over it. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif\">Keep looking at the camera to maintain eye contact.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif\">Glitches and interruptions are a part and parcel of video interviews, and handling the situation adequately demonstrates your ability to adapt to difficult environments. The critical thing is to realise that video interviews present a slightly different set of challenges. Your ability to handle the problems gracefully will go a long way in making a positive impression on the mind of the interviewer. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif\">Want a career at Infosys?
