I’ve been getting more interested in programmatic lately and considering shifting more toward that side of marketing. Does anyone have any insight on how the industry is doing and where it’s heading? I know The Trade Desk just took a big hit, so I’m curious how people on the inside are feeling about the space overall.

Hi Fishes,

I got interviewed at infosys two days back.
When can I expect to hear back from them.
Also all the questions that were asked to me were written coding questions(Write block of code) none were verbal.I could write all answers but none was 100% correct.

At last I asked the interviewer about feedback as in where was I wrong. He said at couple of places and he explained me where was I wrong.

Do you all think I will be rejected?

Hi folks,
Which company is better to join... Having experience of 5.4years as Java Backend Engineer. Cvent or Nagarro or Cognizant?
