Interview Preparation Tips

Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - I spent two days for their bleady interview the waiting time between each rounds were very very long wait. no tea / coffee refreshments were given. It was long day I went at 10 in the morning and came out at 10 pm for just two or three rounds. The next I was asked to go to the other location two rounds were done on day 2. Final round took place the best part is they did not have the better place to conduct interviews it was all done in a lobby the surrounding was more or less like park and sit out. The ops manager could not find better place to conduct my interview finally the interview happened on a bench. I was not comfortable with the round as such as she asked me stupid questions I could get those vibes of rejection, and I knew it.
