Honestly companies suck at responding back. It took 6 weeks for me to hear back. There’s some candidates I interviewed that take 3-4 weeks to find out as well due to hiring committee process.

I interviewed somewhere last week at noon and had a verbal offer at 915 the next morning. It doesn’t have to take forever. I would probably email Monday morning though, to give them the entire day Friday.

Hi Fishes, I cleared technical and MCQ round at Accenture. And got a mail stating i have been selected for HR round. Later the same day a hr called and asked me to upload all documents and asked my expected CTC and stuff. Earlier in portal it was showing interviewing , now it shows review or pending and has a message ' we regret to inform that you experience does not align with req, we will contact if anything comes up' , what does this mean. How can they put something like this?

DD has great people and WLB, but pay is low and you’re not given the tools and resources to succeed + truly make an impact. Google and Apple are ideal but need backups. Like is Salesforce still good?
