I think cognizant has the worst HRs, like i dropped an email a couple of weeks ago to re-negotiate my offer but they didn't care to respond. I dropped an email saying I am withdrawing my offer and they still didn't care to respond. Why are they hiring if they don't care? Deloitte USI Tata Consultancy Wipro Accenture India Infosys
Hi Folks, I submitted documents 2 weeks ago for BGV in Tech Mahindra. I have not got any response so far from HR. However, last week they scheduled another interview and dropped me email just before 15 mins, yet i joined the interview but no one joined from their end. Now, HR is not responding. What should I understand from this case? Am I rejected? Tech Mahindra Tata Consultancy

I have and I do think there is some element of fraud happening here. It’s been almost painful to try and understand these candidates. And also I’ve noticed they all seem to have google phone numbers and there is a SIGNIFICANT lag time from when I ask a question to when they answer. Significant. Which indicates to me it is an offshore number OR someone is listening in and providing them with the correct answers.
I experience this issue a lot especially in the Mulesoft world. Thank goodness we had video interviews and was able to identify the fraudulent candidates better.
This has happened to me a number of times in the last few weeks, and I'm wondering if people are trying to commit fraud? Are they trying to play the game and advertise themselves as "desirable" white male candidates on paper?
This is very confusing, and I wonder if anyone else has seen something like this?
This happened to me recruiting Salesforce developers. In retrospect there are signs. Perfect resume but few connections.
We asked them to interview through speaker not headphones.
The scam is to get a ringer hired and collect a check. It will take a couple of weeks before anyone finds out. Then the ringer quits. Ringer then gets a cut and scammer the bulk of the take. It’s too small to prosecute.
Also a lot of foreign born people use American (not Caucasian) names bc of the widespread bias so it’s good to be careful there.
But a sign is when the name is ridiculous like Dirk Diggler where someone would have said something somewhere.
