BENGALURU: Infosys terminated 240 trainees at its Mysuru campusafter they failed to clear an internal assessment. This decision came after the trainees were given three attempts to qualify. The company gave them ample preparation time and arranged several mock assessments and doubt-clearing sessions.Despite these efforts, the trainees were unable to meet the required standards. This marks the third instance of such terminations at the IT firm’s Mysuru facility in recent times.
In Feb, Infosys terminated around 350 freshers after they failed to clear internal assessments. In March, the company dismissed 45 trainees for the same reason.
On completing a separation and general release agreement, the company said it will offer one month’s salary, a relieving letter, and a 12-week training programme for potential roles in the BPM sector. Infosys has also partnered with NIIT and UpGrad to assist the affected trainees by sponsoring their training programmes to prepare them for future openings in the BPM industry.
