Is it for a webex role?

Nope

Best of luck! For the webex role, the process entailed a screening call, then call with HM, then virtual on-site (4-5 interviews I think) and then a final assignment with a presentation. Can’t share anything more than that.

Might be worth asking the recruiter more about what the hiring process is like? I usually ask and they don’t have a problem walking me through it most times, I just do have to ask.

IOT PM - where are you in the process? I’ve been speaking to folks in CX group. But I don’t know why the reviews here are mixed.

Hi Fishes, I need your advice!

I joined CG 6 months back and was on training for 3-4 months for Dynamics CRM, completing multiple MS certifications. Post that I was mapped to an account for the project & was under shadow.

After shadow completed it seems like there's no project openings in the account for which I was selected. And now management wants me to go for other certs.

Please help me know whom can I approach & ask for project openings/tagging. I'm worried as it's already been 6 months!
