I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Bank of America (Gurgaon, Haryana) in Apr 2016
Interview
I attended interview in the month of April on a Saturday. It was a all women's drive. After waiting for almost 3 hours and more after the scheduled time I was called for the first round of interview. It turned out to be a telephonic one and very basic questions were asked. After the round completion they informed me that I had cleared the first round and would be called back for the second round by Tuesday, also they gave me a number of the HR who managed the drive to call in case I did not receive the call by Tuesday. After multiple followups and calls and emails after 2 months they are informing that I did not clear the round. Really a waste of time, once confirmed that I had cleared the round and then after 2 months all of a sudden changing the statement.
