Interview Preparation Tips

Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - Pls don't opt if your selected for THINK NXT program, because it was horrible and tedious. They will onboard with plan of training rigours with no logical pratical plans. Too much torture and pressure mainly for Laterals. Laterals will be treated like freshers with high humiliation. school and college like culture will be followed where you will get progress report. Each technology taught for 1 day and asked to do whole assignment same EOD and submit next day, failing which you will be blasted right in the call. It's highly not advisable to choose Maveric currently mainly as Think Nxt program
