My interview was pretty casual (but with an admissions person). Questions were: Walk me through your resume, why MBA, why Kellogg, leadership experience, what others say about you

Thanks for your thoughts.

Experience was very similar to yours.

Hi Fishes! I have been trying to immigrate to Australia since 2018 with their permanent residence program and applying for jobs at Australian companies from the past 6 months. Both have not been successful and I am really depressed. I am a front end developer with over 9 years of experience. If anyone could provide any tips or contacts of recruitment agencies or consultants who could make my dream of immigration to Australia come true, then I would be really grateful. Thanks 🙏🏼

Hi all,
I had my technical round scheduled with Capgemini last week. This week I cleared the L1 interview round and HR discussion. Before releasing the offer letter they asked me to submit my documents and sent a link to appear for an AMCAT exam (English grammer and email writting) as part of hiring process . My question is based on AMCAT score is there a possibility that Capgemini would revoke my offer ? Is it an elimination round as they mentioned this a part of Capgemini hiring process?

Hi Fishes,
I had given interview for network security architect position in Feb last week. And as per recruiter, I got selected for that role. I have been asked to share the documents on March 1st. I did a few followup for the offer letter update and they asked me 2 wait for 2-3 weeks. And now they are saying position has gone on hold after I did another followup.
Could it be because of expected salary ?
Yoe: 9

In myCompetency portal, my primary skill is being displayed as X, where my primary skill is Y. When I tried to change it, it goes to my approver for approval and she's declined to approve it with reason that your interview was taken for X technology however it is not correct, my interview was taken on Y technology only.

Also, she mentioned that your current project is based on your X competency so we can't change it.

How to deal here?

I got a call for a Java position. I told them I do not develop in Java. I do JavaScript with React. He says “oh yes, that is what the client wants”. So I sent my resume. When he sent the confirmation email it stated Angular/Java. I told him that I don’t have much Java skills. He then sent this (pic) as a response. 🤔🤔🤔
When I spoke to the client she had no idea why the recruiter added angular react as it was just a Java developer position, Completely wasted so much time
