Interview Preparation Tips

Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - Please do not join. HR will not guide you and you will feel HR is scammer unprofessional, they will not provide stay, if promised also they will denie at end moment. For some candidates at end moment they will tell now no job opening. Payroll team is also unprofessional they will not inform salary deduction in month of January and February. They will not ask which tax regime you want to select, they will select by their own. They will not take proper induction on company policy. If HR ask for buy back your notice period don't do it they will not give money and if you ask they will say now their are not job opening. Please look for other job offer.
