@AD1 😂 If you can win Lions every year and keep clients happy, I’m sure you could have it. I personally hate interviews, looking for some new thoughts. Worst thing you can do in any profession is think you have it all figured out.

You are a GCD and you don’t have this down pat? Tell me where you work, I want your job.

SD1 you forgot the most important question of all: Van Halen with David Lee Roth as frontman or Sammy Hagar as frontman?

OPJust dropping snark. In no way could I be a GCD at my experience level.

Hi Fishes,

I got interviewed at infosys two days back.
When can I expect to hear back from them.
Also all the questions that were asked to me were written coding questions(Write block of code) none were verbal.I could write all answers but none was 100% correct.

At last I asked the interviewer about feedback as in where was I wrong. He said at couple of places and he explained me where was I wrong.

Do you all think I will be rejected?

I saw some sales managers discussing hiring strategies, especially for entry level roles (e.g. SDR, BDR).

One strategy that came up was having the applicant do 90 minutes of cold calling into real prospects with the hiring manager coaching.

What do you think of this approach? Would be curious to hear from both hiring manager perspectives and from candidate perspectives.

Hi Fishes,
My total experience is 5 in QA, I attended Deloitte interview. First round was technical and it went quite well, they asked lot of theory questions. I answered few and quite I was not sure of answers. She gave feedback like my communication and confidence level is good and project wise I'm having good knowledge and coming to concept wise it's not upto the mark for experience. So my query is will they call me for next round?I really wanna get selected since Deloitte is mydream company
