Infy's First recruitment AD. in 1991..



Only 64 brilliant young engineers are destined to conquer the world of software. Find out if you are one of them this Saturday.

As Infosys moved to new markets and new clients came on board, recruitment had to keep pace. This ad, which appeared in 1991, created quite a buzz. Infoscion Ananth Vaidyanathan, who applied and joined, recalls, "Infosys was a little-known company. Most applicants were enthused by the ad. A huge crowd turned up, more than a 1,000 there was a virtual stampede." So much so that the glass doorway at the hotel, where the interviews were being conducted, came crashing down!



Ananth remembers that they were divided into batches of 100 for the test, and things were impeccably organized. Only a small number finally made it to the next round and finally, 16 candidates were selected. The interview rounds were conducted by Nandan Nilekani and N. S. Raghava.
