Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - In this interview, Sarmistha Singh was HR in Kolkata who finalized my profile and discussed about salary & preferred location. When it comes to Offer letter. She didn't sent. After 3 days, I tried to follow up with her. She said ping "Hi" in WhatsApp, I'll share feedback of the process. Lastly I got text "Not Shortlisted". If you not interested to on board me then why you discussed final talks related to salary & location & joining date. I think This type of HR spoiling Big Basket reputation & candidate's ambition.
