Software Developer

They did the exact same thing with me in early 2020. After a very long case study, 5 interviews, including 2 discussions with hiring manager. I was pissed off because they ghosted me. And after multiple follow ups over 2 weeks, they told me the position has been put on hold. It was due to covid, understandable, but ghosting was just bad.  
 A year later when they reached out again, I declined citing the poor experience I had while interviewing with them last time.

Welcome to Software Engineers's Private Community

Hi, can anyone help how much time does Salesforce India takes to release the offer letter. I got verbal communication from HR about the selection for the role of MTS, but nothing after that. Workday also showing the application in consideration state. 

Can anyone please help?

I recently got a chance to interview with Microsoft and it was probably one of the worst interview experiences ever.

Team: CCE - Commerce Customer Experience (BEWARE OF THESE FOLKS!)

Round 1 - March 27, 2024
An engineer from WA reached out to me via call and told me that they want to interview me for an opening. I was happy and agreed for an interview the next day at night. In the meantime, I asked the seniority, the job description, and the interview structure. He said 4 rounds and sent me a SE2 job description. He asked me DSA and some basic Java Questions. The interview went very well.
Self Verdict: Pass
Actual Verdict: Pass

Round 2 - April 1, 2024
A manager (who would have become my manager if selected), called me. He sits in HYD office. Asked me for an interview. He asked me tougher DSA and System Design. The interview went very well.
Self Verdict: Pass
Actual Verdict: Pass

Round 3 - April 10, 2024
Another person, who is the manager of the 2nd interviewer called me and asked me for an interview. Same, DSA, System Design. The interview went very well.
Self Verdict: Pass
Actual Verdict: Pass

Before round 4, I had to call and write emails to my 3rd round of interviewer to ask for updates as there is no HR involved; and he said, "The position has been put to hold because of some internal restructuring. Please just wait!"

Round 4 - April 24, 2024
Another perosn called me from WA, and requested to schedule an interview. I thought this would be my last round. He asked me DSA, and tried to understand my profle and asked me some AA interview like questions. The interview went very well.
Self Verdict: Pass
Actual Verdict: Pass

Now, I was just hoping for a call form the HR to ask me for details to release an offer. But now the twist starts!

Most Pathetic Microsoft Interview Experience after 8 rounds - L61

I gave 2 rounds of interview at Deloitte recently. 3 days later, I got a mail about asking for different documents to submit including payslips. I submitted the documents with in 2 days. But did not received any update from them from last 2 weeks. 

When I called the HR who used to called me for interviews she told we will schedule HR round for you in someday. But when I called her again after someday she told the position is now on hold. What does this mean. Am I not considered now?

Hi team recently gave interview @walmart 4 rounds including hm. They said feedback was good before the Hm round. Not sure afterwards haven’t heard back for 2 days after HM round. called the hr and she said she’ll call back she didn’t.

Whats the general time they’ll update for Hr round or for discussing offer? Or should i consider luck will prevail whether ill get the offer or not

After HM round no call back?

I had an interview on the 10th September. I've followed up with the recruiter multiple times since then. He keeps saying that my feedback is positive, but he's waiting for the final result. How much longer should I expect to wait?

Hello,
I have attended final round of interview 7 days back in Accenture for Program management lead and did not get any notification yet. If I was not selected I think I might get a mail. I checked with the HR as well they said they have haven’t got any feedback yet. I am confused whether it was rejected or position was on hold or how much time it will take?  . If anyone knows the process please reply.

I have been interviewing with Microsoft since late March 2024, possibly for an SE2 position.
There is no HR involved. Engineers/Managers from Washington and Hyderabad call me or email me and schedule my interviews.

Round 1 (Mar last week): Technical
Round 2 (Apr first week): Technical
Round 3 (Apr 2nd week): Technical
Round 4 (Apr last week): HM

Surpisingly, there is a round 5.
Round 5 (May second week): Technical/HM

My 5th interviewer said that there is going to be a 6th round of interview as well, by the manager of 5th interviewer. He also said, "Hoping that we will work together soon."

As of the date of writing this post, my 5th interview was almost 3 weeks ago. I asked my 5th interviewer for an update and I got a response saying:

"Sorry for the delayed response. I was so busy with many work items. At the moment we are on hold and we will reach out to you once we have the confirmation."

After my 3rd round of interview, there was a gap of 2 weeks as well, and upon aksing my 3rd round of interviewer about an update of my candidature, he told me something similar. It did upset me but I did have a 4th round as well.

Given Microsoft is hiring a lot right now, I feel confused why my candidature is on hold. I feel very frustrated and desperate for the offer.

Because I am new to this, I would appreciate if anyone here, can help me with their experience ,what could be going on?

PS: All my interviewes were extreamly well.

Very confused with MSFT SE2

Nowadays companies tend to take 5-6 rounds of interview and
One of my friends had gone through a similar procedure for 3 companies now- all into Fintech(one is a big MNC doing good and the other ones are startup) initially they moved forward with the CTC although they didn't have the budget and after 6 rounds of interview(5 general rounds and 1 to be more sure). 
I don't know how you cannot be sure of someone after 6 rounds of interview and why companies are not transparent about the CTC they can afford.
It has happened to a lot of my known SDEs including myself. 
Just wanted to vent out, just because of the ongoing market conditions, companies are troubling the candidates a lot.
Did you guys also have similar experiences?

A new trend going on... 💀

I'm saying this because Microsoft has posted more than 240 software engineering jobs in India in just the last month, bringing the total to 547 software engineering jobs in India alone. However, despite this large number of job postings, I haven't seen a single new employee announcement on LinkedIn for any of these positions.

Does nobody want to join Microsoft, or what?

Position on hold !!!
