Thought the recruiter already told you they wanted those.

I hope they don't try to stress these, that would be harassment

DD1 the job descriptions I have say "comfortable with data analysis" that could mean anything.

Beware folks, There is an unprofessional lady HR in axtria
1. Will proceed for interview even if expected CTC is over budget just to waste your’s & interviewer’s time
2. Won’t inform you even if you are selected by the hiring panel in case any candidate currently being interviewed has a lower CTC ask & makes promises without being aware of what she can get on paper just to give lame reasons post 4-5 rounds of interview. INFO ISSUED IN PUBLIC INTEREST & SPEAKS VOLUMES ABOUT CULTURE OF AXTRIA!!!
