Funny Experience.
Got a mail from HR to talk to HM, forgot that mail and after 2 weeks got another mail saying if you wont respond to this mail, they will close my application, still I didnt respond to it..
Then one day all of a sudden got a mail, saying that they have closed the role I had applied to but HM wanna talk to me about another role... and we are arranging a telephonic with HM at 4 pm, still I did not respond ... after 4 I got another mail saying that the telephonic round has been rescheduled at 5... enough of that so I finally responded saying I am available at 5:15 and shared my cell number.
At 5:15, a guy calls himself as HM, talks like HR calls me and starts with HR question and visa .. Appears, he was looking for testers ... after 45 mins of round.... we both we certain I am above the skill he is looking for...
Next day received a mail from HR, that "We will not be able to provide visa sponsorship for this role and therefore we will not be able to move forward with your application ".. When we made sufficiently clear that I dont even need visa sponsorship..
Thats the sign of work environment...

The product seems interesting, but the HR person complained about their work and didn't know how to answer basic questions about the team during the interview. I got a generic rejection a few weeks later.

It was smooth however they failed to inform what was the nature of the interview. I assumed it to be a screening /behavioral interview but it turned out to be a technical coding interview

The interview began with a phone call with hiring manager where my interest to apply and past experiences were gauged . Followed by a take home coding test . After the coding test was submitted , I had three to four rounds of interview speaking to future team mates and one pair programming session related to the coding task , then a chat with the PM , hiring manager and another manager . Although the interview took long it was great experience meeting really great people. The whole process was great and didn't feel like I was being tested but the interview was conducted with an approach of getting to know the candidate
