Interview Preparation Tips

Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - Only boys working here. Only only only boys.
They hire married boys only as they can pressurize them for more work and extra time.😡😡
Seen people working under a big pressure as obviously they earning for their livelihood... I feel pitty for them.

HR will create a fake story about this company. So dont bother listening to his shi*it.. everything about this company created online or HR is well planned to trap you guys. Beware it's a big trap.

Not even a single girl in the office because they won't hire them as it's tough to pressure a girl for more work or in terms of giving salary ..

🚫NO GUARANTEE IF YOU WOULD BE PAID OR NOT 🚫

They will take your all documents in order to discuss salary as if you applying for a loan for a bank and then negotiate like buying vegetables from a vendor ..

****DO NOT WASTE YOUR CAREER HERE GUYS ****

Strictly say no and don't ever think of joining this... No job security here at all.
