Interview Tips & Stories

So, I got invited for this interview, and they told me to be there at 9 AM.  Of course, I get there early, like 8:30, because I don't want to be late. But then I end up waiting for 1.5 hours.  Seriously, they didn't even acknowledge me until 10.

Then this HR lady calls me in, and she's totally unprofessional.  She's like, on her phone, making personal calls while I'm sitting right there. And then she starts asking me these really weird questions, like what my nickname is, and what my dad does for a living.

It got really uncomfortable when she started pressing for details about where my dad works. I mean, what does that have to do with anything? So I politely told her I didn't want to answer, and she actually said, "Then we can't continue this interview."

I was honestly shocked. But instead of arguing, I just stood up and said, “Alright then.” And walked out.

I left feeling pissed. Not only did they waste an hour of my time, but the HR rep was also rude and unprofessional..

Resign BPO , Should I resign this job and have consistent 3months focus on any new IT subject , does it will be helpful as the market is not good so far for freshers nor bpo candidates , if I will be in the present company , surely I'll be dead and if I give time to myself I can heal , practice and focus I think so , is that good or not ? As bpo has yearly 3-5% hike and where IT atleast have 10% hike , money is the key factor, I am totally confused, can anyone help me up ASAP.
