Hi! Does anyone have any book or video recommendations to prep for (non-technical) Program Manager interviews?

If you have to ask about study materials on Program Management, maybe you should rethink applying for the position. A Program Manager wouldn't ask their "peers" how to be a ProgMgr. You work your way into that level of position. Experience.

What a condescending comment. They didn’t ask about study material to be a PM. They asked about interview material. Last I checked, it was highly recommended to prepare for an interview.
If you don’t have anything good to say. Keep scrolling.

Thank you, appreciate the lead!

Hi fishes,
I had interviewed for Cognizant and I was asked to submit my documents for offer letter release. This happened on the same day as my interview(Friday 6th May). I submitted my documents and I am trying to contact the HR who scheduled my interview, but she is not picking up my call. My question is how soon can I expect the offer letter to be released? And is there a possibility that they can reject my profile at this stage?

This is a recent incident happened to me, was interviewed for tcs, salary discussion happened on 12th March and was told to wait for final approval and was told that offer letter would be rolled out in 2 weeks. Hr did not negotiate on the CTC either. After waiting for a month i tried reaching HR they did not respond. After multiple emails they simply say that they cannot move forward due to high deviations. Guys is this normal in TCS that even after final CTC discussions ,candidates get rejectd.
