does any one have tips and tricks on how to be a good interviewer? I'm finding it difficult to gauge someone just asking...tell me a little about yourself...

Sometimes applying pressure on a candidate to see how he/she will react/behave (ie asking tough questions). To me it can show how that person would react/behave when dealing with difficult clients.

Hi Folks, I have submitted the documents in last week 8 days ago for Test automation position. But still I didn't hear for further steps of HR round. I called HR, she said my docs are under review, they will get back to me. My question is what time it takes to release the offer for Persistent. Also anyone knows how is Accleriote BU at persistent, would be helpful for me. Thanks

How much time it takes for Barclays to get back. I interviewed for full stack profile yoe: 5.6 cleared all the rounds 3 weeks back still no call from HR. I asked 25 cctc: 19.

I had an interview with Cognizant and then got an email from HR to fill in CIS form and also along with to send all the documents. After i send all those details i got an email saying the position went on hold and to wait until they revert.
Any idea that how much time it would take for the position to be released? They did not respond when i asked the same question.

I recently had an interview with a very promising pre-IPO company in the AI/ML space for a SE leadership position. The interview feedback was better than I expected, but with a twist. They have already given the offer to someone else, but they still want to bring me on board and they asked me what I would like to do. I am in the process of gathering more info, but it is tempting to ask about pivoting into product management. What would you do in this situation?

CCTC: 17
YOE: 8.3

Got 2 offers:
Lucidworks - 33
Boeing - 35(Verbal offer after countered them with lucidworks offer).

Now with freshworks, last round is pending.
Let me know what would be better.

From interview perspective, I enjoyed lucidworks interview as the interviews taken by quality people compared to other two companies. But it is a startup.

Btw, I have been interviewed for 6 rounds in Citrix and waiting to hear from them.

CFP study programs:

I'm a little confused on Danko - does he offer a self-study option for the coursework requirement? On his website it looks like each module has a 4-day virtual class which I wouldn't be able to attend due to working full time. Does this program also include self-study material, and the classes are just supplementary/optional? I was also looking at Dalton for self-study and Danko for test prep. Thoughts?
