Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - They are more focused on API testing work. Questions related to manual testing are kind of simple. Some scenario based questions on testing, related to experience. Also asking for automation testing experience, although HR said only manual testing is required
Every technical interviewer was interested in knowing the CTC, which generally does not happen.
HR said its a hybrid role, also specified in job description but director said he wants people to come daily especially new joiners.
They have different policies for new joiners who are on probation period as compared to their old employees.
HR does not give apt response, interview process is very messed up. She will mostly avoid your calls of follow-ups. Firstly my profile was rejected within 3-4 days during profile shortlisting, then magically I received online test invite and then eventually interviews occur. But after 3rd round, I was rejected again via mail by HR (with no feedback obv) and that too when I tried to follow up with her after 4 days of giving 2nd technical interview. Hiring process is quite messed up and needs some refinment
Also the online test conducted by wheebox has a lot of technical glitches, not a smooth process.
Seem like their budget was quite less which was not told in earlier stages by HR.
