And by that I mean getting an email on Monday that you will have an interview on Tuesday.

Alright. Is it it normal to get your three-hour interview schedule at 1 am the day of the interviews? Even if I got the job, I wouldn’t be starting for literal months.

Hello Fishes,

So far I received offers from PwC India, Capgemini and Lexmark for Data Engineering.
