Interview Process is pathetic. First round is virtual and Interviewer is good but for second round, they will ask you to come to office and the Interviewer KADHAR will waste your 1 hour even though you give all the correct answers , he will ask you how many offers you have etc and talk to you in sweet manner and ultimately will not select you, just purely a waste of time. PLEASE DONT WASTE CANDIDATES TIME AND RESPECT THEIR TIME.
