Interview
The HR set up online interview and then manager interview followed by. During the interview, the senior manager mentioned the team worked as a family and people called each other at mid-night to get the work done. Claiming this is not a transactional work where you log in at 9 and log off at 5. At that point, I know I wouldnt want this job at all. Good luck to those who work till midnight.
