Recently, I had a mind-boggling encounter during a senior finance role interview at a prominent startup. After impressing the Finance Director and Controller, I expected an interview with CFO as a logical next step. Instead, I found myself facing an Independent Director—a puzzling addition to the process, especially with a CFO in place.
What baffled me more was the interview's focus. Despite the role's clear scope within India, the Independent Director bombarded me with international tax inquiries, completely unrelated to the position or the company's operations. It felt like a ploy to glean free consultancy for personal matters.
This experience left me questioning the rationale behind hiring protocols. Why subject candidates to irrelevant interrogations by individuals detached from the role's purview? It's disheartening to witness such a flawed process at the hands of those meant to guide a company's growth.

Not surprised. They have a shitty model. Probably going to shut this FY or next unless they turn things around 180 degrees and fast. Similar case for others they've mentioned in the article as their competition.
During my recent post interview interaction with EY HR, I had a horrible experience! They’re insanely inhuman and disinterested in your concerns. All they want is to close position and fulfil business needs! However the role and my exper...
