After 15 years of hiring, I really don't see the point of calling references anymore. It's all just opinions and bias, in my opinion. Why let a hand-picked contact influence a big decision? I'm curious if anyone still finds them useful or if we are all just wasting our time on these reference checks?

Had a very unpleasant experience with the entire interview process at Paytm. First of all they kept all three rounds in a single day . It started from the morning and ended up till the final round at late evenings. After all the rounds were cleared, the HR asked for the expected package, and when I gave him my quote which was just 35% more than my current CTC, he got reluctant and said we only have a budget of an X amount which was just 10% more than my current CTC. Who on earth does that..?

Anyone with reduced schedule success stories? Considering an 80% schedule but worried drawing the line will be hard.
