      Cloud Architect Interview

      8 Apr 2025
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at HCLTech in Mar 2025

      Interview

      March 21, 2025, I just did very unhappy interview with a major consulting company HCLtech. What happen is: In interview, whether I turn on video is depend on if interviewer turn it on. When my recruiter joined and turn it on, I turn on right away. When you go off, no other have video on, I turn if off. Then I got asked to turn if on. I said if any of you turn on, then one of them turn on even though not really willing, I turn it on of course. Later he left the meeting. No other have video on again. I had to turn if off again. Then they asked me to turn it on, I repeat my standing again. He said, this is interview, he requests me to turn it on. I had to said, interview are seeing each other. I will need any of you turn it on. They stop this interview right away, I left right away. This is really disrespectful to candidate. Even interviewer get the power of offering or not, it doesn't mean he can do disrespect to candidate, escape the basic polity. Candidate has the power of join the company of not as well. The touch job market, doesn't mean candidate has to give up self-esteem. Companies shouldn't be spoiled with such arrogant.

      Declined offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at HCLTech (Bengaluru) in Jul 2022

      Interview

      HR will call you for and ask certain details. In a day they will schedule the interview and will keep on calling. Total 3 rounds. Round 2- Technical, understanding about cloud services, migration, cdn, ha, autoscaling, etc Round 3 - Almost same with General Manager Round 4 - AVP person sitting onsite without knowledge. Round 5 Hr discussion, with a rude female unexperienced Hr, who will never respond. Will not check you payslips, latest offer letter, but simple say i cant see it. Even after clearing all the rounds HR will keep on telling you offer is in process, but no guts to tell the truth. Suggestion, do not waste your time with HCL interviews. They dont give hikes as well maximum they will give hike is 2 %. Even for level E4.1 they will cant offer 40 lacs. Very cheap minded. I think complete salary is given to CEO of HCL who received 71% hike in 2022. HCL did this with me 2 times, first time in 2015 and 2nd time recently.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Round 2 and 3 was good, but 4 with AVP is waste. HR discussion is waste they are immature.

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at HCLTech (Noida) in Aug 2020

      Interview

      There were 2 technical rounds and 1 HR round. Technical rounds based on the Infrastructure side of the GCP. They might be looking only for the person who has experience in environment setup, deployments, Devops etc.

      Question 1

      Interviewer was mostly asking the questions on infrastructure side.
