I had an exploratory interview for a Recruitment position at Zydus Medtech. The HR Head, who recently joined, was meeting people to build their team. It was a professional and engaging conversation. Unfortunately, I didn't get any update after the interview, even after following up by phone and email. I think even a quick message about the status would've been nice. As a recruiter, I know how important it is to keep candidates posted on outcomes – it shows the company's culture. The interview itself was good, but the communication afterward could have been better. Giving feedback and closure really makes for a good candidate experience.

There was no clarity on the role until the offer letter was received. The job description was completely different than the role offered. Different stakeholders provided different inputs on the kind of role until all of them came on one table. The final round is usually an in-person round.

The hiring process was quite lengthy, involving considerable time for deliberation and final decisions. Ideally, they should streamline this to a maximum of 15 days for a conclusive answer. My interviews were in April, but I received the offer the following February.
