Olive Crypto Systems Front end Developer Interview Questions and Answers

Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - ALERT: Please be careful with this company's process.

I was selected but instead of the giving the offer letter, after a week, they told that they need joining in 40 days, where my notice period was 60 days, to which I agreed by negotiating with previous company HR.
The moment iam selected, they could have told the same thing, that could have saved a week's time. Anyways, I accepted the terms.

But again after few hours, the same hr told that they want me joining within 15 days or less. If not they can't release offer letter is what she told.
Just imagine you have to ask your manager/Hr two times in a day. Morning you asked for 40 days, afternoon you are asking for 15 days. How bad you will look.
I said to Olive HR, it is not possible and said NO without any delay.

In the very beginning I clearly communicated about my notice period as 60 days, negotiable till 45 days and also conveyed my expectations as x to y But when i was selected ,they wanted notice period to 15 days, and even the salary is x-.5L.

Just to communicate a decision they are taking more than 1 or 2 days. Not even basic professional behaviour from their HR team.

They also mentioned 2 saturdays are working days also.
Join only if you have no other alternative.

Due to this, previous company HR and founding team got to know that I would be leaving sooner. This is at a time when they are looking to layoff people due to bad revenues and they asked me to resign because of Olive HR's team unprofesssional behaviour.

The story didn't end here. Now the second half of their unprofessional behaviour

I have resigned and again called HR, to check if they still have the opening. This is after 30 days from my selection, she said opening exists. I said i can join in a week, but asked for more salary x, again they dragged the days to say Yes or no. To my surprise, they told , they will more 50k less than previously told salary which is x-1. I was dumbstruck. But somehow convinced to give atleast x-0.5( the one which they said the first time) .
Again they took another day and finally she gave me the most wonderful response, that they don't need this role and they have kept it hold.
The same thing could have been told when i called second time. It could have saved my time.

First time, they didn't convey properly about notice period . Second time, when they wanted to hold the position, they could have said the same thing instead of dragging things.

Hopefully they behave more professionally and communicate properly atleast to the selected ones rather than changing the terms in midway. They have effected my employement in the previous company.

Request to company and HR: It's fine to reject candidates but don't play like this. It could effect them than what you think.

Tips to candidates : Be very clear with your notice period and salary intially only, don't be played like me.
