Worst interview experience. This company don't want to hire any QA. They are just promoting themselves by taking interviews.
I was contacted by HR via LinkedIn, even though I saw many bad reviews and interview experiences still I thought to give a try and it proved to be the worst decision.
The interviewer was the most mannerless person I have ever seen in my life. He gave me a basic program to write, I started telling him different approaches to solve but he started misbehaving and said I gave you this problem to solve not fo discuss. I mean how can a product company supress ideas and discussions.
I solved both the problem with minimal complexity and that mannerless person didn't even discuss the approach and how I have coded the solution as he himself was clueless about time complexity. In the end I got rejected me and till now I didn't get any feedback that why I was rejected even after solving both the problems with minimal complexity.
So I realised that each and every review is correct that they don't want to hire anyone, they are just conducting interviews for promotions and just to reject everyone.
I applied through other source. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Freshworks in Sep 2024
Interview
I have mixed opinions about the whole process but I will try keeping this short. First, I agree with most of the reviews written here, it felt like they do not want to hire anyone and are just here for the sake of it.
My interviewer was no different. He came prepared with a mindset of "One problem can only have only solution". Having this mindset, that too during an interview is wrong in my personal opinion. To every question that he asked, I provided solutions which were acceptable. But he was adamant to hear the answer that HE was expecting. What a joke. After an hour and half of interview, and answering almost 90% of the questions he asked, he said there would be another round just to test you more. I was okay with it as I knew I lagged behind in some fields. But BAMM! Rejection mail in a week. Unsure what exactly they are looking for.
The HR, however, was good and was prompt to schedule the interview.
Note: If you are about to interview here, do give it a try, do not let the reviews stop you. But observing all the fellow reviews and my own personal experience, the company do have this problem that they need to address.
