First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Executive Director.
Chartered Accountant Article Trainee
To fill two CA article trainee positions, they invited about 50-60 students. The interview process spanned around 5-6 hours. The location was in an inconvenient area, far from the metro, requiring an auto ride. We experienced significant waiting times. Before the tests, we had to fill out a form asking about our family, their occupations, our strengths and weaknesses, and our willingness to work long hours. Everyone took a 15-question computer-based test for about 20 minutes. Due to limited computers (only 5-6), tests were conducted in turns. We were called around 9 AM and finished around 2-3 PM. Following the test, one of the company directors conducted interviews, asking basic questions. A notable incident was the jamming of the internet connection, leaving us without phone internet for the entire 5-6 hours, even for emergencies. I felt the process was unprofessional, with a lack of initial filtering, leading to a waste of time for everyone involved. The stipend adheres to ICAI norms.
- Can you tell us about your family members, their jobs, and your respective strengths and weaknesses?
- Is working long hours something you would be comfortable with?
- Were there questions related to salary, HRA, Clubbing of Income, and Incomes taxable for NR?
Program Manager
I applied and then had a phone screen with an entry-level HR rep. They didn't send a calendar invite. It felt like they were just reading from a script, very robotic, not conversational at all – the least conversational phone screen of my career. Then I had an in-person interview, but I had to pay for parking myself, and again, no calendar invite was sent. I sent a thank you note afterwards, but then I received a standardized rejection email from the system.
No confirmed questions were included in this interview report.
Account Manager
Had 3 interviews over the span of 2 weeks, and then they moved quickly to extend an offer. It was a pretty standard process. The offer itself was thorough and had good benefits. I ended up declining the job because it wasn't the right fit for me at that particular time.
- Can you describe a situation where you had to manage conflict in the workplace?
Digital Marketing Intern
Applied on the job portal, then they saw my profile and called me for a direct walk-in interview. They asked about my skills and previous year of experience. Then we discussed salary and their working days and time.
- Tell me about your skills and previous experience.
