Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - Not at all worthy experience. Such a huge organisation and HR people they don't know what does a offer mean to a new Candidate. You are not going to the market to buy stuff. You have to earn your candidate and same for candidate as well. Both have to mutually understand each other needs. If you cannot make an offer to the person then kindly do not waste neither your time and nor theirs. And if you have to hire real talent then expand your budget, stop bargaining.
