Interview Preparation Tips
Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - Beware of interview calls from infosys as from my personal experience and my friends. After interview process there is no response even after multiple followups and one of friends after completing all interview rounds HR called and verbally confirmed that he is selected but after 10 days he received rejected mail and when contacted HR he said not sure why but the offer letter approval got delayed.
