Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - The interviewers are good but the HR recruiter was a pain to talk to, she was lazy and I had to follow up multiple times to get a response from her. After having cleared my technical rounds, she mailed me to send all required documents to proceed with HR discussion and did not respond after that to my calls or mails.
