Interview Preparation Tips

General Tips: If all goes well, you can expect the offer letter in a day or two. The pay would mostly align with what your expected salary was. Mine did. But I wouldn’t say it depends on the number of years of experience you have. People with less experience do get better offers. I did. In case you are still not satisfied with the offer, you can discuss with the HR and see if it could be reconsidered.

Interview Preparation Tips

Round: INTERVIEW
Experience: My interview went on for about 1.2 hours.
It was the first interview I was giving in my life, and it couldn’t have been better. Before entering I had made up my mind that no matter what, I wouldn’t get nervous because I didn’t need to.

General Tips: Do’s and Don’ts :
- Do not try to be someone else during the interview. Because the person sitting on the other side
has the ability to figure it out in a jiffy.
- In your portfolio, please put only those things that you are proud of. You don’t have to show
everything under the sun that you have done. Your master resume is there for that. Your portfolio is
just to show your best work to them.
- Be confident about whatever you say inside the interview room.
- Try working on your portfolio by mid-august so that by the time the SPO asks for your portfolio, you would’ve had the time to make 3-4 iterations on your final one.
