  • Q1. Don't go for interview and waste your time. They don't have clarity within the organisation

Interview Preparation Tips

Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - No CULTURE & CLARITY
I gave interview in Kraft Heinz for the position of Financial analyst. After the initial screening round i was told that the need is urgent and would it be possible for a shorter notice period to which I agreed. Then every week there is one round which continued for 1.5 months with different departments.The HR had no clarity on that. Then after the final round i was told it is positive but confirmation will take some time. How much they didn't know. Then I was told the position no longer exists. 6 interviewers and HR couldn't decide if there is an open position or not but THEY are deciding whether a person is fit for the organisation or not. After the candidates invest so much of their time and hope they can't decide on such basic things. Even for such a big organisation it's an indecisive mess. Reflects what kind of CULTURE they follow. Waste of time, effort and energy. HR won't answer till you don't mail with cc to interviewers. Their culture of ‘ownership’ doesn’t filter through to the recruitment team.
