      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Publicis Sapient (Gurgaon, Haryana) in Apr 2024

      Interview

      The interview experience was not good. The interviews expect you to give bookish answers for example asking you to write kafka producer/consumer configurations which as a dev you don't have on top of your head. They want muggers instead of logical thinkers.
