Well for starters and these are probably the basics. Interviews should start on time and end on time. The candidate should have full transparency on who will be interviewing him or her. So just like the interviewers have the candidates CV, the candidate should have some basic information on the interviewers. The candidate should have dates on the next round or at least expected dates and if it changes, they need an update. Last but not least the candidate should get feedback if they don’t get the position.

Make the process as quick as possible, with next steps + dates communicated ASAP.

Set expectations from the get-go: include salary band & benefits, in-office requirements, and other logistics in the first call. Do not change these up on the candidate at the last minute!

Give feedback throughout and at the end, especially if the candidate does not get the job.

At the end of the day, treat every applicant as a person: with dignity and kindness.

I’m interviewing for a start up and the role sounds interesting. Usually for the “test” part of the interview I’ve had to analyze data.

Is this a lot for an interview?

Hi Fishes,

I am looking for the job change in ServiceNow profile and having a experience of 4+ yrs.

Currently I am trying to create network in linked in and naukari but still not getting the response from some companies like JP Morgan or mindtree etc.

Can u help me to understand what is the best way to create a network to some major companies.

I know applying directly to the company site mostly doesn't have any benefit or will take long time to schedule the interview.

Is there any benefit (or detriment) to applying to a job via LinkedIn/Glassdoor over the company’s website?

Hi friends,

I'm a new joinee in MSFT.

People in my team they don't come with me for breaks. (They blame the timings are different since they sit in crits but i don't think so because they have their own group of friends to go with)

Secondly, when my team members see me in cafeteria we expect they'll sit with us but people here are being rude they directly go and sit with their friends they don't call you to join. ( atleast they could have said they are accompanied)

People behave unpleasant
