I applied through an employee referral.

After one month of applying, I received a call from the recruiter asking to schedule an interview.

Initially, I was surprised that they wanted to schedule the process on weekdays, which is unusual for large organizations nowadays.

The interview was scheduled for Wednesday.

Initially, I was asked to report at 9:30 AM, but two days before the interview, they revised it to 12:00 PM.

I reached there at the scheduled time and was asked to wait on different floors for 30-40 minutes.

Then, the first interviewer came.

He asked me questions about Java, problem-solving, and design patterns.

Overall, it was good as per my understanding, since I was able to answer the questions.

After the first round, came the second interview, which was a cultural round.

I was asked again about the database and my current project. Moreover, it was based on a behavioral round. This interview was better than the previous one.

After this round, a lunch break was supposed to happen, but due to an unmanaged schedule, they skipped it, and another interviewer joined.

This was a problem-solving, data structures, and algorithms round, which went superbly as per my understanding.

After going through this round, there was another technical round, based on production-level code and algorithms, which also went well.

After all this, I was asked to wait until the next day for the result/status or feedback.

Now the worse part starts. The HR didn't get back for the next few days.

I dropped an email, still no reply.

Then I called her. This was almost 6 days after the interview, and I got the response that I still needed to get feedback from the interviewer. Such poor management.

I followed up with her for the next 5 days, then she replied with a statement that, based on feedback, we have finalized that we are not considering your profile anymore, since your experience is not primarily with Java.

Really a poor recruitment process. The HR part is really very unmanaged here.

I wasted one whole week of my working days there, just to be part of their not-so-friendly process.

They could have easily identified my skills and experience from my resume, but again, a single word can describe this complete experience: "Poorly Managed."
