Interview Tips & Stories

A Digital Markter

Got Rejected In an Interview, Just Because I Didn’t Answer a Personal Question

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..

Dislikes

No proper vision and strategy from management on capturing new business. They just believe few execs blindly and there is no targets and monitoring the results. After acquiring CipherCloud they never met the GTM targets on Cloud security business. When there is no growth, the only thing they keep doing is laying off people (apart from other ways of cost cutting). No transparency, too many frequent changes in the org strucure and most of the employees always feel uncertain and uncomfortable....Read More

Not even a single thing is good at Lookout

Dislikes

They did cheated me by hiring on contract promising that it will be converted to full time in 6 months but ended up working there for 1.5 years by begging every month to convert me to the full time. Finally, laid off abruptly without even considering me for the severance pay and when i questioned back, they responded saying 'it is not possible for contractual'. During the work, they made me work for different shifts which was not even discussed when i got hired and i used to work in the night shifts to support the NA team, yet there's no such recognition as such even after keeping my best efforts in everything that i had done for the organisation.. Worst management who never cares about the extra efforts which the employee had invested. Laid of many employees without proper intimation and reasoning....Read More
