Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - I cleared all rounds and holded one offer in this process. This whole interview process took around 2 months. BGV itself 1 month (very very slow). Got letter of intent alike Offer letter. By trusting this LOI I withdraw my other offer. HR named irfana from chennai (worst person) and Meghna who is superior to her. Both of them didnt even respond for status which i have been asking for two week continuously. No response, Literally altimetrik wasted my time and efforts.
