Interview Preparation Tips

Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - Interview was good and the HR's(interviewers) were also supportive. But we don't get any feedback after we reach home, they asked every detail like PAN,aadhar card number, account number and many more. Tried to contact them but no response. Go through Google reviews and ambitionbox reviews before going to the interview for sitel/Sykes/foundever. I wouldn't suggest anyone to waste their precious time and efforts by attending interview over there.
