The initial test was conducted on 27 June. Unfortunately, the test management was not handled well. The examination platform kept crashing throughout the test, and many candidates lost a significant amount of time. Some candidates reportedly lost 30–40 minutes, while I personally lost around 15 minutes due to technical issues. As a result, I was unable to complete the test properly.
After the exam, I emailed the HR team and the concerned coordinators explaining the issues faced by candidates. It appears that several candidates raised similar concerns. Subsequently, Infosys arranged a re-test for candidates who were affected by the technical problems or were unable to complete the examination.
The re-test was conducted on 11 July. This time, the experience was much better. The test was managed more efficiently, the platform functioned smoothly, and there were no major technical disruptions. Overall, the administration was significantly improved compared to the first attempt.
Regarding the test pattern, the questions were largely based on the Legal Executive job description and the areas mentioned during the information sessions. Candidates should focus primarily on core legal subjects. Topics included Contract Law, Mergers & Acquisitions, Arbitration, CPC, CRPC, and other foundational legal concepts.
Apart from the legal questions, there were approximately 2 to 5 questions on English grammar, logical reasoning, and reading comprehension. The comprehension section included passage-based questions where candidates had to read a passage and answer questions based on the information provided.
The exam consisted entirely of MCQs. There were 120 questions to be completed in 90 minutes, so time management is extremely important.
As far as I understand, the selection process involves multiple elimination rounds. Candidates who clear the written test move on to the Group Discussion round, followed by the Interview round. Candidates who successfully clear all stages are then issued offer letters.
I am still awaiting the results of the test and have not yet received any update regarding the next stage of the process.
My suggestion for future candidates is to thoroughly revise the subjects mentioned in the job description, practice MCQs, brush up on English and logical reasoning, and work on speed, as the time limit is quite challenging.
Hope this helps anyone preparing for the next Infosys Protégé recruitment cycle. If anyone has already received results or updates regarding the next stage, please feel free to share them in the comments.
