💡
They took all the round in day 1 but I get the offer after 1 month . Offer letter took little more than Expected . There were total 3 round including Project round.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
They asked about the UI policy , Client Script , BR , Report and Dashboard
It was an easy interview, it was focused just on oops and rest apis, no questions apart from that maybe i was unlucky, my interviewer was lazy to even questions things
good very good, asked me experience and also work related questions. Very professional interviewers and also the experience in general was great! Only recommendation was that instead of face to face, online would be better, as they generally ask candidates to travel to different cities without any compensation,.
