Interview Preparation Tips

Topics to prepare for Hilti Senior Software Engineer interview:
  • Don't waste your time on this company
Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - Please avoid giving interviews for this company. Highly unethical behaviour on their part. Explanation below.

Despite giving so many rounds of interview (on multiple days), there was no offer given.
After asking the external HR again (after a month) about why there was nothing yet, I was told that the position no longer exists.
This speaks volumes about the company's ethics.
My advice: Avoid wasting your time with this company. They don't have the basic courtesy to even let a candidate know why there's no progress on his/her profile. You are better off going after companies which actually give offer letters soon.
