Hope it goes well, but on a positive note think of how much better prepared you are for the next interview! It usually takes me 5-6 SQL interviews to get into my stride.

I usually ask questions like what’s a join, inner join, purpose of an index, what’s a view. That’s usually enough for me to see where a candidate is at.

Hello everyone,

I wanted to know how long does Course5i take to release an offer, I cleared all rounds last friday and was going to get an offer from HR early this week (by Monday evening or Tuesday) but didn’t get any offer till now.

I loved the role and I am still excited to join the organisation so mailed a follow up to the HR yesterday but did not get any response till now. I do not want to follow up for the next 1-2 days since I feel it would be too pushy from my end.
