Interview Preparation Tips

Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - 1st round was technical. As discussed with HR, 2nd round was supposed to managerial round but at the time of interview, the interviewer only asked technical questions and it was purely technical round.

There was no HR round or any salary or location discussion with HR at all and they released offer letter and I got the mail regarding it.

Very bad experience with HR. No response whether it be mail, call or text.
Empty promises whenever connected and again no response.

This was my story!
