Interview Preparation Tips

Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - Recently interviewed by Co-founder. That was my third round. Still, they kept me on hold assuring that all reviews for my interview were positive and still wanted one more interview round. Then they didn't contact at all. When I contacted them, I got to know that their HR assumed I was not ready to relocate so they didn't contact. So either they don't know who they interview or they just assume things about candidates. Then, two days later, they said they have hired someone and let me know if any requirements in future. Just waste of time. I recommend not to apply here if you really are applying for job change and one should not depend on this company's assurances. They will just interview you and waste you time without letting you know anything about the decision.

I applied via LinkedIn and was interviewed in Dec 2024. There were 2 interview rounds.

Round 1 - Aptitude Test 

General basic assessment.

Round 2 - MCQ 

(1 Question)

  • Q1. They will give you few PDFs to read and then MCQ from that.

Interview Preparation Tips

Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - So the job application process will start from emailing them to the MCQ. Then if selected you'll receive email with next steps which involves Skype chat(no involvement of voice call or video, only chat). Then after the technical setup you need to email them again that you're done with that, after that you'll get another mail with a link to choose a starting date.
On the starting date you'll again message one person(Yashima Kamra) on Skype, they'll give you 'Zulip'(it's an open source chat system, interface is kind of like Discord but too basic) access. Now you need to message in an assigned group in Zulip. The Zulip part is 'Training' in real but good luck getting any support from the other person. He/she will just give you commands, and if you ask any questions or ask for assistance to understand the new process they'll simply ignore that.
Then if you're lucky like me one day they'll report that you're ate fault, you haven't reported so they've revoked your Zulip access.

I have joined there or you can say hoped to work atleast(as it was 4 hours/day job) but that's not possible it seems.

If you're looking for jobs here I'd suggest to give it a try ofcourse so that people can actually know about this company's rubbish people.
