There is an online assessment provided by SHL, where you must keep your cam on. It's hilarious because for a job in Europe, the assessment has indian terms (like lakhs and so on) without even explaining how much a lakhs is, and you can't search online. Also, the assessment cut off with a timer with 15 minutes left. Weird experience. Dodged a bullet probably.
HR round and Hiring manager round -
HR round was simple asking general HR questions.
Hiring manager asked questions on my experience, internships and skill. At last 2 business case studies relatively easy.
Had an interview with a recruiter for a position I was likely overqualified for. A couple of things to beware of:
- Misleading Compensation: The salary range posted online is significantly higher than what is actually being offered. When I spoke to the recruiter, the absolute "hard cap" was actually in the middle of the advertised salary range, even for a "superstar candidate". This lacks transparency and honestly wasted both my time and the recruiters time.
- Unprofessional Advice: The recruiter offered unsolicited advice on how I should communicate my "career desires" to my current employer before looking for new employers. It felt like a major overstep.
