Mindtree culture is detoriating day by day . No clarity on hike and appraisal even though mail have been sent regarding this since Dec 2021 . Disgusting HR head practice who joined from CTS . How come they don't abide by what they communicate and keep silence without any update for delay .
Shameful . Feeling Disappointed. Has joined this company 11 months back with hopes for longer and fruitful association but will resign soon . Pathetic company Mindtree

I had an interview w/ the Hiring Manager at Boston Consulting Group for a position and it went so well that the HM said on the spot I was going to be moving onto the next round. Its been weeks since that interview & I've had to follow up w/ the recruiter 3x asking for an update. I mentioned interviewing elsewhere but prioritizing BCG. He finally responded to that saying he was going to debrief with the HM and get back to me but nothing... what gives?

Don’t read from a script. And don’t recite a memorized script
That’s going to be a bit hard since i’m the type to prepare A LOT for the interview. 😅
I am also someone who prepares a lot. I’ve learned that writing it all out - than having some bullet points near by when I’m interviewing helps - it all flows out naturally. I might have my notes but because I wrote it all out, it’s already in my head. Idk it’s working for me. Good luck.
Conversation Starter
Best way is to write your points down
The best way to do this is to think less about specific questions you want to answer and more about stories from your past work experiences that make you a good work candidate in a variety of situations, and then tell the story that best fits the question. This is especially helpful in STAR format interviews, but it makes for a natural interview that feels more like a conversation, and tends to work well in most situations!!

Practice practice practice and it will sound like you're prepared but casual, not scripted.
Biggest advice I can give, that I practiced myself, was be myself. The worst thing you can do is memorize scripts or be someone you’re not. Know how to communicate your skills, be able to elaborate why you think you’re a great fit for the role, and do your best to answer any questions they have. It’s ok to pause to think about a question they ask too. But putting a ton of pressure on yourself to be “perfect” will only do more harm than good. Be professional but have fun with it.
