Which company did you have the worst interview experience with?
PayTm. After 4 interviews they ghosted me before the last interview. Never told me if I was rejected or doing okay. The HR just lost me in the system or something g
Ula Its an Indonesian B2B startup
Interviewer asked me what my hobbies are, I said I like to run He replies “Isn’t your BMI high?”
I had a very healthy BMI and this was a Zoom interview. Still think back to that. Ex Oyo guy who’d recently joined their team.
Airtel (dragged for their airtel tv n xtream app for 2 months, 4 interviews , assignments and what not then complete ghosting)
firework, snap, fb (no feedback after multiple stages of interviews, ghosting)
Zomato (guy kept asking sell me this pen, watch, phone, nahi bechna bc)
josh (thrice b/w ‘18-‘22 bsdk ceo bhi banaenge still won’t go)

Wipro, the guy started asking me questions from the word go, at one question, he asked me about reinforcement learning, i answered the question somehow and told him that I haven't worked on reinforcement learning.

I just gave him some garbage answer confidently and he accepted it. Later I found out Wipro uses some interview as a service agency for taking interviews.
Wipro uses an agency to conduct interviews?? News to me 😳
