I have 9+ years of work experience in Core Java. They called me for a face-to-face interview, for which I traveled around 45KM on a working day morning.

On reaching there, I was surprised when they told me:

"It seems you have most of your experience in Core Java. But we are working only on PHP. I suppose you should think about it and be sure if you want to switch to PHP. It will be a waste of time if we start the interview and then you don't join due to a change in tech."

Given the facts that:

• They already had my resume.
• I had requested a first-round telephonic interview, but it was not done.
• Most companies conduct an exploratory call before starting.

I am filled with such a disgusting feeling about them, I can't explain.

After talking to them about this, I reached one conclusion:

• Zomato doesn't care about candidates; how can they care about employees?
• They are habitual of calling candidates for face-to-face interviews (at the candidate's expense) and then reading the resume.

Beware of this company. You can't grow like this.

Are you really sure that you want to switch your career from Java tech to PHP?
