Infosys Training Experience | System Engineer Trainee | Infosys Mysore

Hi guys!
Im back with another video about Infosys and what all you will learn during the training. This is an overview of the whole timeline of my training which stays more or less the same for everyone.

Description

Welcome to HumBhiEngineer — where we bring behind‑the‑scenes stories from engineering life, training journeys, corporate culture, and real talk about what it’s like stepping into the IT world. In this video, we take you inside one of the most talked‑about training grounds for freshers in India: Infosys’ Mysore campus, and how the System Engineer program (or related foundational training) works there.

Whether you’re someone who’s just cleared your final semester, waiting for an offer, or trying to decide whether this path is for you.

Why Infosys Mysore?

Infosys Global Education Center (GEC), Mysore, is one of the world’s largest corporate training centers.
The Foundation Program (or foundation training) is the hallmark program, designed to transition fresh graduates into corporate-ready professionals.
Infosys
Since inception, over 100,000+ engineering graduates have trained at the Mysore center.

The campus hosts thousands of trainees at once — training, boarding, and living in a residential environment.
Thus, the Mysore campus is not just a training center — it’s almost a mini university campus for freshers, with infrastructure and experiences that shape the early part of many engineers’ careers.


The distance between ECCs and GECs may be a kilometer or two; hence, bicycle stands and transport facilities are organized.

There’s also a floating restaurant, some premium or special dining options.

Training schedules are intense — day
The flow is similar:

Orientation & L&D (Learning & Development) / Foundation Phase

Corporate culture, ethics, policies, process introduction

Communication, soft skills, presentation, time management,
Operating Systems, Networking fundamentals

Basic software engineering concepts, OOP, REST, etc.

Perhaps small projects or labs that integrate multiple modules

Stream

Generic assessment, L&D assessment, stream assessments

Failures may allow reattempts; failing consecutively may lead to removal from training

Some assessments
Evaluation & Continuation Criteria

The assessments are strict; many trainees don’t clear them in
Trainees must adhere to attendance.
