Interview
There were two rounds, a technical and a managerial round. Both the rounds were taken within 10 days. Technical round included basic questions on Tableau, Python, SQL. After clearing this round, Managerial round included describing previous work experience, project listed in resume which was part of work exp, etc.
This round also had questions like your biggest achievement, reason for joining, biggest troubling situation from which you found your way out and so on. I felt that these questions were not much related to testing out one's technical depth and were more like an HR interview questions.
They told me to wait for 1-2 weeks to know the outcome. After the time had passed, I called but got no response. Then I mailed the HR, and then got to know that my candidature would not be carried forward, i.e., I didn't know the outcome until I myself had to push it from my end. Overall, a bizzare experience considering that both the interviews went quite well.
