Interview Preparation Tips

Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - Total pathetic experience. What job description is given to you, doesn't matters because you won't be asked for that. Your resume will get shortlisted and then it doesn't matter what u have covered up in your career path, because interview rounds will consist of questions out of your scope. Your resume doesn't needs to be shortlisted at first end if it doesn't suit thier needs. HR people, they are on another level. You share your resume to them, and they will never ever reply back to you. Not a single HR, but it seems everyone has same culture. You keep trying to connect them for support. But they will just keep finding smarter ways to avoid.
