Interview Preparation Tips

Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - I had the worst experience which left me so frustrated and sad. Before the assessment round i specifically called and asked the HR regarding company's budget but she told me it is open i thought they must a good budget which would surely justify my expectation .. They took 4 rounds, 1st round - assessment then called me to their office took 2 interview where i had to wait for 1.5 hrs total, it was a hot day , the hr just wanted me to go through all round just for the sake of it, at last i had a round with their CEO who was the rudest of all she rescheduled the call 3 times, was yawning at my face throughout my introduction, didn't even care to cover her mouth. Then at last offered me same CTC as i had in my last company. The hr then called me after this round asked me how it went and tried to manipulate me to agree on any low number they would offer next. They stretched the whole process unnecessarily for more that 2 weeks meanwhile they kept calling me asking unnecessary questions and after all this came up with 10% raise . WOW. worst company. The interviewers are rude, manipulative, unprofessional, wasted my time and energy. left me so frustrated. Never gonna recommend this company to anyone. Shame.

Interview Preparation Tips

Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - I think by seeing other reviews you might get an idea what kind of company it is. They don't care about other people's time. I actually got the job and was just waiting for my offer letter but the HR kept stalling for a few days and later texted me saying, "Your profile has been put on hold until further notice." With the current market scenario, they are just using designers like this and wasting our time and energy. Think before moving forward with such companies.

Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Resume Shortlist
Experience: I had applied for the internship through mail. I sent my portfolio and resume along with it. After a few days I got a call for a Skype interview from HR.
Tips: Keep your mail short, simple and straight forward. Don't lie in your resume because at the end of the day, you are doing the internship to learn.

Round: Technical + HR Interview
Experience: One of the UX designers at the company asked me to select any one of the projects from my portfolio. Then I was asked to describe the process followed in that project.
Tips: Be confident while describing your project. Don't add any terms or processes in your project documentation that you can't answer if asked. Be very thorough with every project in your portfolio.

College Name: IIT Guwahati
