Interview Preparation Tips

Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - Sometimes the interviewer can be a glober - who really doesn't know what they are talking about. They will even ask you what they do not know. They can even ask you things that are NOT applicable and they will stand with it to show that they know better. Above all as a candidate for the role that you really want to go with, ensure that you are aware of what you say, be prepared for the interview as if you know nothing. Ensure that you are well informed on the line of task. Also be prepated to provide the interviewer one good project that you had already carried out based on the application required for the profile. Be calm always if the company recruit you, it is their luck as you always have ample opportunity with other company as well.

Why are women still asked such personal questions in interview?

I recently went for an interview… and honestly, m still trying to process what just happened. Instead of being asked about my skills, experience, or how I could add value to the company… the questions took a totally unexpected turn. The interviewer started asking things like When are you getting married? Are you engaged? And m sure, if I had said I was married, the next question would’ve been How long have you been married? What does my personal life have to do with the job m applying for? This is where I felt the gender discrimination hit hard. These types of questions are so casually thrown at women during interviews but are they ever asked to men? No one asks male candidates if they’re planning a wedding or how old their kids are. So why is it okay to ask women? Can we please stop normalising this kind of behaviour in interviews? Our careers shouldn’t be judged by our relationship status. Period.

Interview Preparation Tips

Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - I applied for pool campus drive before covid in feb 2019. The whole interview process have done in one day.

The first round was basic aptitude and essay writing the level of difficulty is average and this is also elimination round.

The second was pseudo coding round It has mcq based programing question like arrays, looping and some data structure question.

Depending on the score in coding round they split us into two groups infra and non infra. Infra for cloud and infrastructure related roles and non-infra for programming related role.

The third round was technical Hr. The level of the interview is average he asked basic questions in c and java like inheritance, Polymorphism, encapsulates etc.. and some final project related questions.

The last round was General Hr. He is very friendly and ask about some basic hr question. More importantly know something about the company before getting into this round.

I cleared the interview and got my LOI after 2 months.

Capgemini follows the pre joining course for fresher as ADAPT. It's very useful those are from non IT background.

Clearing ADAPT is not mandatory but you need to participate.

Due to pandemic I got the offer letter on Feb 2021 and now I have completed my training and looking for project.
