Interview Preparation Tips

Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - Charles Schwab HR Screening Round for Machine Learning Engineer position (Entry-level) - - Location: Phoenix, AZ, USA.

This was strictly a resume screening interview to check whether my skills aligned with the job opening.
Prepare well for the key details of the company and its core values. Be exceptionally well prepared about your own resume and try to align as much as you can to the role. There will be a high number of candidates vying for the role and you have to make your best mark to make it to the technical round phase.

Did not clear this round - was disappointed. I gave a good account but there were candidates who's skills were "little bit more aligned for the role".

Interview Preparation Tips

Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - Not a pleasant experience. Although the job profile and role was of Database testing only. But both HR and interviewer said, they were looking for a person having mix of UI, Database and API testing. However, interviewer's mostly questions were focused on database only.
It has become a common norm that HR and interviewer does not open their cameras during virtual interview but expect the candidate to open their camera. Technical Interviewer joined 5-10 minutes late in call, when he joined HR greeted him and said Hi Sir. Later on she also asked me to greet him!! In fact, interviewer was quite rude (video camera was already off) and didn't even disclosed his name also (He used initials like SK234097). In the interview, it appeared that he was not able to understand English as a couple of times, he asked to speak slow. He demanded every answer to be explained in detail and with an example, if he was not satisfied with my answer he keep on asking me to explain in different words. Similarly when he asked me a question (and if I did not understand that), I also asked him to explain the question in detail but he kept on repeating that one liner question every time (That behavior showed his stubborn nature and bossiness)
