We have those?!?

I ran one yesterday. I like to see how people think and how you’d approach a problem. Clarify expectations for the presentation early, ask questions when given the opportunity, and put on your consultative hat.

We’re not a “what framework would you use” sort of place (at least in my world). Be a good consultant, speak technically when you need to, and have a cohesive plan about how to solve the problem

I don't know who needs to hear this, but I have a few former classmates and colleagues sweating over lateral interviews. Take a deep breath and relax.

First, doing these interviews does not define you as a person.

Second, take it one day at a time; if they are moving forward, they see something in you.

Third, remember that the people interviewing you are human beings. Connect with them, be personable.

Hello Fishes,

I had given interview
Mindtree and cleared both technical rounds. On Tuesday 29 March 2022, I got a call from HR for the final discussion. After that I have not received any response.

I have been calling the HR and her manager, both are not responding to mail or calls.

Is there a way to get some information if my candidature is still in progress or is this delay natural? I have another offer from another company, but am more interested in joining Mindtree.
