I applied in-person. I interviewed at Pi Techniques (Mumbai) in Oct 2024
Interview
I was given a poorly worded case study with minimal instructions and unrealistic timelines. The task required analyzing a dataset and proposing a business strategy. However, the dataset provided was incomplete and inconsistent. Despite these challenges, I submitted the analysis, only to find out during the review call that the interviewer hadn't even looked at it beforehand. They skimmed through my work during the meeting, offering no constructive feedback.

No context or instructions, leading to confusion.
Can you build a predictive model in Excel during this call?
Unrealistic expectations for a role focused on analysis rather than advanced technical work.
Why did you choose this approach over others?
