Interview Preparation Tips

Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - I interviewed with Meesho for a role I was excited about and completed 2 rounds successfully. However, after the interviews, I received no feedback or updates from the HR Team. Despite multiple followups via email, WhatsApp and call, there was no response - just complete silence.

Ghosting candidates after they invest time and effort into the hiring process in unprofessional and disrespectful. It reflects poorly on Meesho's hiring culture and raises questions about their values. Providing feedback, even if it's a rejection, it's a basic courtesy that candidates deserve.

The experience has left a negative impression of Meesho's professionalism. I hope they improve their hiring practices to treat candidates with the respect they deserve
