Interview Preparation Tips

Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - If you’ve got a lot of spare time, then apply. People who would like to save their time can skip. The company takes numerous rounds and doesn’t feel necessary to at least give you a reason for rejecting your candidature. They send you the same impersonalised email they copy/paste to everyone. I lost 2 leaves and numerous hours, all for them to send me a mass rejection email after 2 weeks. Good thing I got an offer elsewhere, much higher than I asked these guys for.

I applied via Naukri.com and was interviewed in Mar 2021. There was 1 interview round.
