Have you ever faced a situation where no specific questions were asked except current project and tech and they inform you that you're selected in the very next call ?
Came across one such interview in TCS..Just wanted to know if the experience is same for all in service based companies now a days ?

So many times

It's not same. may be it was just a screening round where they were evaluating you if you are suitable for the project or not.

@Infy I am also in Testing (automation) and 3.6 yoe only. I have also had some really easy interviews in many service based companies who were ready to give immense hike but I didn't join them. If you are really good at automation and coding then do try for product based companies. Their interviews will be hard but if you are skilled enough you can clear. I will be joining a well reputed financial product based firm next week with a very good hike. Don't bother with these service cartels (WITCH) they are in a really bad shape as of now as no one with good technical skills wants to join them.

Hello recruiters, happy Monday!

I want to know why recruiters ask me in an interview if I am looking at other opportunities, or if I am interviewing at other companies. If I say yes they will ask at what stage I am.

I just want to know the reason behind it and if there is a right answer to this question!

When you recruiters say at the end of a 15 min call.
“I will get back to you by the end of this week” does that really mean “your not right for this position”? Because this whole thing is a waste of time. I’ve did these calls with 3 recruiters and is yet to hear back from someone. Today would be the 4th recruiter that I’ve spoken to. Does this practice annoy you guys just as much as it does us? My dream career is to be a technical recruiter but this whole thing is discouraging.
