Ciena came to ITC hotel, Bangalore to conduct interview on Saturday. I cleared 2 Java technical rounds post which HR asked me to fill the Employment Application form. Then happened the interesting HR round where the HR asked my current CTC(which I had already communicated to consultancy and also consultant told me that Ciena agreed on paying me the expected CTC) and he was surprised with my current CTC and he said you are already getting good salary. My CTC is average as per market standard for 5 years experience. I don't know what made him think my CTC to be high. He was negotiating a lot on my expected CTC and I was clear on that part as I had already communicated the same to consultancy at the time of scheduling interview. Later they did not come back which is unprofessional. Already communicating the expected CTC and after clearing all rounds, these guys shows surprising reaction to my expected CTC which was just 30-40 percent hike on my current CTC. It was just waste of my time.
