The interview process was pretty standard. It included a technical interview, a techno-managerial interview with a VP, and an HR round. They asked about data structures and my past projects. One LeetCode question, easy to medium difficulty, was part of it. Since I was remote, the onboarding went smoothly. The whole interview process was quick, wrapping up in just a week.

Technical Behavioral

Don't bother interviewing with this company, especially for AI roles. The interviewer seemed more interested in getting free consultation on their AI use cases and understanding my current company's AI roadmap and products, rather than assessing my skills. They had no clear idea of what they needed or the required skill set. No technical questions were asked, and they didn't share any future AI plans.

Confirmed questions1 question
  • Can you describe your company's present and upcoming AI strategy?

I got a call from Naukri on July 18 for an interview. The first round was the very next day, July 19. Since it was Friday, I waited until Monday for the results. I called the HR at 6 pm, and she asked me to call back in 30 mins. I called back at 6:30 pm but she didn't pick up, and subsequent calls also went unanswered. Some people got emails saying they weren't selected. I sent a follow-up email to the HR who scheduled the aptitude round on the same day, but no reply. The next day, I sent another follow-up email to the HR who initially called me about the job, but still no reply. I called her again at 6 pm, but she kept ignoring my calls. It's frustrating because a quick email or call response takes only a few minutes, and I spent 1.5 days preparing for the test. Everyone deserves feedback after an interview, but I'm still being ignored after multiple follow-ups.
