Hi Folks, I have submitted the documents in last week 8 days ago for Test automation position. But still I didn't hear for further steps of HR round. I called HR, she said my docs are under review, they will get back to me. My question is what time it takes to release the offer for Persistent. Also anyone knows how is Accleriote BU at persistent, would be helpful for me. Thanks

Has anyone experienced burnout from interviewing? I’m extremely exhausted because of the extensive interview processes I’ve been through and I’m not sure what to do. I have 2 big interview rounds coming up for roles I really want but I’ve put so much energy into interviewing for other roles that I can’t even focus and prepare for the upcoming 2. I’m not prepared for the interviews so I’m not sure if I can take a long break but I’m open to literally any suggestions! Thanks!

Is it normal not to mention on call time in a job description? I just had the weirdest interview, including me mentioning that part of the reason I was willing to take a lower salary is because of on-call time and she said “Oh on-call time is required. They have it every few weeks. That’s in the job description.” Even though it definitely isn’t in the job description.

Hello all. Need your help on this.
My joining in Accenture is on 19th December and I got selected in TCS also. But TCS HR is saying that offer rollout is now frozen till 31st December and it will open on 2nd January,2023 and then he will immediately send the offer letter. He has given guarantee for that. Should I wait for TCS? Looking at the coming recession situation I am confused where to join. CTC almost same for both. Track is Identity and Access Management and experience is 4.5 years.
