Interview Preparation Tips

Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - I interviewed with Meesho for a role I was excited about and completed 2 rounds successfully. However, after the interviews, I received no feedback or updates from the HR Team. Despite multiple followups via email, WhatsApp and call, there was no response - just complete silence.

Ghosting candidates after they invest time and effort into the hiring process in unprofessional and disrespectful. It reflects poorly on Meesho's hiring culture and raises questions about their values. Providing feedback, even if it's a rejection, it's a basic courtesy that candidates deserve.

The experience has left a negative impression of Meesho's professionalism. I hope they improve their hiring practices to treat candidates with the respect they deserve

Interview Preparation Tips

Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - Round 1- The interview lasted about an hour. The interviewer was a no nonsense guy and was just concerned about the approach and my though process. Am not even sure if he even smiled throughout the interview.

Overall, I felt it was a great problem-solving exercise. Later I realised that fleet-optimisation was one of the major problems Swiggy (and this interviewer) was working on, and hence this question was
related.

Round 2- The interview would have lasted at least 1.5 hours. The interviewer
was extremely friendly and a great listener - he encouraged disagreements and looked
for the rationale behind decision making and structure in thinking.

Round 3- The interview would have lasted at least 1.5 hours. The panel was friendly and from their depth of questions/ cross-questions it felt as if they were working on the this problem itself i.e. designing restaurant’s menu pages on Swiggy. It was pretty
conversational and not at all a stress-interview, with more focus on customer-empathy, design sense and product sense.
