Process

There were five rounds of an easy interview. After taking all the rounds, HR returned a strong positive for all rounds. Surprisingly, the rest of the hiring team wasn't aligned and couldn't take a decision. I was called for another round where the interviewer seemed to have personal biases and had already made a decision. Later, HR kept postponing feedback. Eventually, I gave up on that. In summary, I am thankful to have not joined poor leadership. I am not sure about the inside, but from the outside, it looks like people should avoid the company for the foreseeable future and look for better companies with clarity and sound judgement.

Questions

The interview included general people and stakeholder management questions. The interview panel was not experienced enough. It is easy to pass if you have real working experience, though I'd highly recommend keeping this opportunity at the bottom of your list. It doesn't look like a company where someone should stay long enough to build their career.
