BENGALURU: Infosys terminated around 350 freshers at its Mysuru campus after they failed to clear internal assessments, despite being given three attempts to succeed. The evaluation aimed to assess their proficiency and skills in Java programming and database management systems (DBMS), requiring them to achieve a minimum score of 65% in each of the assessments, sources told TOI.
When TOI reached out to Infosys, the company said, “At Infosys, we have a rigorous hiring process where all freshers, after undergoing extensive foundational training at our Mysuru campus, are expected to clear internal assessments. All freshers get three attempts to clear the assessment, failing which they will not be able to continue with the organisation, as is also mentioned in their contract. This process has been in existence for over two decades and ensures a high quality of talent availability for our clients.”<\/p>\n

TOI spoke to some employees on conditions of anonymity. “I was given an offer in 2022, but I was on-boarded only last Nov after nearly two years. I got 63% but didn’t meet the threshold criterion. I come from Patna and flights are expensive. We are not given any alternative accommodation and are asked to leave by 6 pm,” he said.
IT union Nascent Information Technology Employees Senate (Nites) president Harpreet Singh Saluja said these employees already endured a two-year-long wait after receiving their offer letters. “However, today, in a completely undignified manner, Infosys summoned these employees to meeting rooms at its Mysore campus, where they are being coerced into signing ‘mutual separation’ letters under duress.”
Nites said it will be filing a complaint with the labour ministry to seek its intervention to assist distressed employees. <\/div>\n<\/div>\n
