Hi Fishes, I have received an offer from Barclays for AVP position. But the role discussed during interview was for Tech Delivery Manager whereas the offer letter mentions it as Tech Delivery Lead. Can you guys please suggest if it is the same role or should I request recruiter to get the role updated? Moreover it would be great if any of you can shed some light on the prospects/challenges of this role based on your experiences. Barclays Barclays global service center

A friend of mine who works on credit suisse contacted n recruiter from barclays regarding a job opportunity. However the recruiter informed that there's a hiring freeze and also rumors about cost cutting and getting rid of a good chunk of associates. Not very confident about this news but again not sure if it could be ignored!
That recruiter must undergo 100's of internal training for doing this 😂😂
Chill man... It must be fake as there is no such plans being discussed internally yet... Barclays has posted good results and is in good shape currently... Best of luck for your joining...
Any idea on assessment questions for Avp
Scary! Can you please share more on the source of this information for @Barclays?
There was a hiring freeze till Apr, but there is no news of any layoffs for perm employees.
Thanks man. It's just that it's my first switch
It is confirmed: layoffs In May, Managers have started breaking news internally.
I am working with Barclays on contract.
Yes they are doing cost cutting and are not releasing a budget for new projects now. But I don't think of any layoffs from their end.

But there are many job postings for Barclays in LinkedIn ...if they are into cost cutting ...any reason for ongoing recruitment...I am planning to join Barclays trying to understand if it's right decision in these circumstances
Layoff can happen anywhere. I would say during these uncertain time do not switch.
If layoff happens then new joiners will be the first victim.
Switching is very dangerous these time
