I was approached by Accenture on LinkedIn, where we initially discussed salary expectations and agreed to proceed with a first interview. The first interview with HR went well, and shortly after, the second interview was scheduled and already in progress. The second interview was more technical and involved two interviewers. Overall, it was a very positive experience: the conversation went well, they seemed to like my profile, and I was genuinely interested in the opportunity and the new challenge. In both interviews, I was very transparent about my salary range. This was clearly communicated from the beginning and reiterated throughout the process. However, about a week (or less) after the second interview, I received a call from HR informing me that they could not meet my expected salary. Instead, they proposed an offer below my stated range and, more importantly, lower than my current salary. I found this extremely disappointing and disrespectful. Given that my salary expectations were clearly communicated multiple times, I believe that if my range did not align with their budget, this should have been addressed before moving forward with the interview process. Proceeding through multiple stages only to present an offer below my current compensation does not seem fair or professional.

perguntas engessadas parecia que estava lendo um prompt, não foi nem um pouco dinâmica e me senti com meu tempo desperdiçado pois a recrutadora não se deu ao trabalho de ler o curriculo antes de marcar a entrevista

I received an email from the Accenture hiring team—even though I wasn't actively looking for a job. I got multiple emails and several calls despite not being interested in the company. They called me several times in a single day and convinced me to create an account, during which they collected my personal details and completed the registration. Later that day, I received an email from the hiring team asking me to schedule an interview. I went ahead and scheduled one, mainly to understand and gain experience of their hiring process. However, even after scheduling it, I continued receiving calls asking me to book an interview. Eventually, they called again to confirm my availability and scheduled it accordingly. Now, all of a sudden, they've cancelled my interview, stating that the positions have been filled. I’ve never had such a frustrating and unprofessional experience before.
