My friend referred me for a position. What's frustrating is that without asking about expected CTC, they initiated the process.

What's even more frustrating is that I went through eight rounds of interviews, only to realize at the end that they couldn't match my current offer, even though the salary they offered was around my current salary.

So, don't go there; they just exploit members in the name of brand and shares.

If you are technically sound and can pass eight rounds of interviews, you can survive and go to any organization.

had many rounds of interviews.
