Need urgent help, I have only 1 week left in NP. I cleared HCL technical interview around 1.5 to 2 months back, they were slow in each step and finally conducted HR round and collected docs bt DEC 20th Or so, but still they didn't give offer letter. Every day I call HR and he says offer will be ready by tomorrow, just waiting for one last approval. But same story again next day. Anyone facing such situation? Will they really give offer or say some vague reasons at last minute?

How did you resign without having offer? Anyway HR is correct there is internal process of approval in system which takes minimum of 7days post HR properly submit every thing in tool. I think the best option you can ask I am expecting another offer today, who ever will release first I will join their.

I have another offer already which is lesser than HCL offer. I have submitted documents around 3 weeks back to HR. Thanks for the information on HCL process.

@TCS - Don't wait for their offer and join the organization who has offered the best offer taking into account other criteria(s) like WLB , onsite opportunities, etc.

HCL Tech and its HRs are one of the worst amongst the WITCH companies and their word/commitment doesn't mean anything.

I am in the same boat as yours rather bit longer.
HCL Tech HR screened my resume after clear discussion around my CCTC and my expectations ( which was i am ready to join even if they match my current fixed rather than CCTC). After the discussion he scheduled 3 rounds of interview that i successfully cleared. And i was asked to submit my documents for an offer release during mid- November 2022. After 1 month and multiple chasers they created my profile on HCL onboarding portal during mid-December but are yet to release offer letter (to this date) and trying to lowball me ; even though I am ready to join their lowballed ECTC ( that is 5LPA less than my current fixed salary). But still they haven't released the offer letter.

The current market situation isn't that good. I have cleared all the rounds of 4 organizations( service as well as product based organizations) and had the salary negotiation with the HR as well but all of them have either ghosted me or haven't extended the offer letter or delayed joining.

I would suggest you to get yourself on-boarded ASAP to the organization with the best offer in terms of ECTC, WLB, etc.

Thanks a lot for your detailed inputs. After lot of chasing I got my offer yesterday, but location is different one. They say there are only 5 base locations that they can select in offer letter, but still HR says he will give mail confirmation that I need not visit the base location. But I am reluctant to ho with his words. As you said, we cannot simply go by HR's words, so I am planning to join my other offer only.

.

Hcl tcs and all very slow. Offer may come after two months of attending interview..

Thanks. Problem is I am not sure whether to wait for this or confirm joining for another offer which I have in hand. It's been more than 2 months now. HCL gives 3 L more than the other one.

No point in waiting. Just inform them that you have an offer to move on by X date. Either they will release offer or ghost out

Sure thanks for the inputs. I already told them that I need to confirm on another offer and don't have much time to wait. HR says don't worry your offer will be ready by today EOD but nothing happens. I will go with what I have already, seems that is better.

They are very lazy, it happened with me once I joined new company after that they processed offer letter. Better you should focus on your current offer.

Unless u have offer letter in hand, nothing is guaranteed. Don't wait for hcl n lose your opportunity... Move on

Sure thanks for the inputs

Did you receive the offer

Yes I got it finally yesterday after multiple calls, but with a different location.

Hello Tram, Hope all are doing great!
I already submitted my resume and application to American Express and was curious about whether you are in contact with your company’s hiring team. If so, it would be a tremendous help if you were able to refer me for the Customer Service position. I’m confident that your referral would go a long way toward helping me land the interview I need to get the job. Need assistance.

I’m taking a long lunch tomorrow to interview with a company willing to offer me what I deserve. I’m telling my current employer I need to get blood drawn for a dr appointment (I need to get it drawn but it’s whenever I can). Hopefully I can kiss this current job goodbye!
