Lol I meant & Company

You should expect immediate rejection if you ever make as obvious a mistake as what you just did in that post. Not trying to be mean-- just realistic. Expect high expectations and intense interviews with brilliant people where you need to demonstrate a high level of passion, experience, and competence quickly.

Hi SA. I applied online and received interest from a recruiter. Where do you currently work?

OP - how did this turn out for you?

Hi PwC. I had a telephone case interview and still waiting for feedback. It’s been a while but I’m thinking no news is good news

Hi,
just wanted your suggestions,
I have 4.2yrs of experience with 14.9ctc in same company without switch.
Now as I have taken permanent work from home due to location issue, they are reducing my package by 13%, so from next month CTC will be 13.7,
Currently I have TCS offer of 16.7CTC.
Is it worth going to TCS, as I have heard they dont give much hike, if I stay in current company in 2years I will reach the package TCS is giving me.

I would like to hear your thoughts and opinions here.

Recently interviewed at Adobe, it was great. Even the senior designer I was connected with escalated it a lot. But then suddenly after the last interview, I haven’t heard in a week from them even after multiple follow ups. Recruiter said she will reach out on Monday, but even Tuesday passed now. Should I wait a week or move on for other offers?
