Interview Preparation Tips

Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - - I would say do not waste your time on this. Just keep it running in the backend.
- I made the mistake of spending too much time on this alongside my busy job. Even though all the interviews went very well, I did not receive the job offer and they just sent me a simple rejection template email after I invested 2 months of my time and had given 6 rounds of interviews.
- I don't know how the culture at the company is, if it is not decent enough to send me the feedback (even after requesting it) given that I invested so much of my time and even the interviewers were impressed with my interviews.
