My roomate interviewed for LEK experienced hire class - didn’t get it after final round. The firm just reached out again, and are piloting a program where there’s an evaluation program 6 months in to determine whether she stays or not. They say evaluation will be the same as other associates, but why not just hire more associates..? Are they just hiring temporary workers? Is she gonna get screwed?

Sounds like a contract role. Generally a bad idea to take it. Your performance has nothing to do with whether you get extended (unless you are horrible in which case you will certainly get fired/not extended); it’s generally dependent on budget. Your job security is close to 0. When cuts need to be made, you will be the first to go.

Spot on BA. Watch out for these kinds of roles. With so many people leaving, there’s a desperate need for more bodies. But when things start to normalize, folks in this type of role will be the first to be let go.

Hi all,

I interviewed with capgemini for SAP ABAP role and my YOE is 4 years. Just 2 hours after my interview, I got a call from someone at Capgemini saying that I am selected.
They just asked my notice period and current location.I asked them, what is the next round going to be and they said that it is going to be salary discussion. But till now, no one has reached out to me.
Does it mean they got another candidate for same job?
If they get back to me, how much should I ask?
Current - 9.9
