InfyTQ is Infosys's engineering hiring and certification platform, and clearing it can open a direct path to interviews. It blends applied programming with hands-on coding and expects genuine fundamentals rather than rote answers. This page lays out the sections, timing, certification levels and typical cut-offs, with sample questions and a practice routine tuned to how InfyTQ actually assesses.
Start a free mock interview →InfyTQ is built around a certification exam that typically has two graded parts plus a viva/subjective element at higher levels:
The platform emphasises Python and Java, database querying, and core computer-science concepts, so it rewards candidates who understand code rather than memorise it.
Infosys does not publish fixed public cut-offs, and thresholds vary by cycle, but a widely reported pattern is that you must clear both the MCQ and the coding parts, often needing a solid majority correct, and in some formats you must attempt the coding section successfully to be certified.
Some versions require passing Section A to unlock Section B, so pacing matters, do not exhaust your clock on tough MCQs and starve the coding portion. Treat any specific percentage you have heard as indicative rather than official, since Infosys tunes the bar per drive. The safe strategy is comfortable margins on fundamentals plus at least one fully working coding solution.
Python output: predict the result of a list-slicing or mutable-default-argument snippet, InfyTQ loves testing whether you truly understand references versus copies.
DBMS: write a SQL query to find the second-highest salary, or identify the correct normal form for a given table. Know joins, group by, and subqueries well.
OOP: a conceptual MCQ on inheritance, method overriding or polymorphism with a short code trace.
Coding: a medium logic problem such as finding duplicate elements, checking balanced parentheses, or basic string processing, solved and tested in the editor.
Because the MCQs are applied rather than trivia, practising by predicting code output beats reading theory passively.
Pick one primary language, Python or Java, and get genuinely fluent: data types, loops, functions, and especially the subtle behaviours (references, scope, type coercion) that InfyTQ questions target. Add focused DBMS practice, joins, aggregate functions and subqueries, since SQL appears reliably.
For coding, solve one editor-style problem daily and always run it against sample cases. Because some formats gate the coding section behind the MCQs, drill timed MCQ sets so you clear Section A with time to spare.
After certification and shortlisting, Infosys conducts technical and HR interviews. InfyTQ's free companion practice can only take you so far on the spoken side, so InterviewPrep's free AI voice mock interview, which builds a session from your CV and an Infosys role and scores your answers, pace and filler words, is a natural next step before the human rounds.
At higher levels InfyTQ includes a subjective or viva element, and clearing the exam typically leads to technical and HR interviews for the hiring pipeline. The technical interview leans heavily on your chosen language, Python or Java, plus DBMS, OOP and basic data structures, and interviewers often ask you to reason about code output or write a short function, so the same code-reading skill the exam tests carries into the interview.
Expect questions that connect concepts to reasoning: why is a tuple immutable, what is the difference between an inner and a left join, how does method overriding differ from overloading. Infosys interviewers value candidates who explain the why rather than reciting definitions, so practise articulating the reasoning behind each fundamental.
Know your projects thoroughly. Be ready to describe the problem you solved, your specific role, the technologies used, and one difficulty you overcame. A confident, structured project walkthrough signals genuine hands-on experience.
The HR round covers motivation, relocation, the service agreement and standard behavioural prompts, and rewards clear, positive, concise communication. Because the interviews test spoken fluency as much as knowledge, rehearsing out loud matters. InterviewPrep's free AI voice mock interview builds a session from your CV and an Infosys role, then scores your answers, pace and filler words, helping you convert exam-level knowledge into confident interview delivery before you face the panel.
