6 interviews. SIX. And they could not understand my role through all the situations they asked me to tell them.
I could have lied, of course. But for what?
Sometimes I think it’s just better like that. There is a reason for everything, and for rejections too. I do only feel sorry for all the time lost to actually prepare and do 6 interviews.
These kind of processes are really draining.

Hi all,

I had an interview in LTI for a .Net Developer position. There were 2 technical rounds and I got selected. I received an email from the recruiter to submit the documents and EAF. I had submitted the requested documents the same day. The recruiter told me that she will schedule the HR round.

I was following up with her, and after a month she messaged me on WhatsApp and said, the HR round can't be scheduled because my expected CTC is her maximum budget. Seriously 😳
