Anyone got recruited for Pune location recently? My interview process has been completed and asked for documents on 23rd Dec, but till now I haven’t got any update after that. Today i called HR and they said manager has not provided any update on my application. Should i wait for the offer letter or look opportunity in another organisation? Deloitte Deloitte India

This lady thinks HR is going to do something about it? All it signals is not being able to handle conflict.
I agree, no need to involve HR usually. Too much red tape.
I admire that you stood your ground... sometimes we have to. In these situations, I think it’s all about being confident and not letting interruptions derail your point. I’ve learned that staying calm but firm is key. If it continues, I’d consider having a more direct conversation with him about how it affects the team dynamic - especially the women in the room.
OMG I know that had to have felt good to keep talking and eventually have him stop trying to talk over you. That is exactly how I would have handled it because they don't do that to each other when one of the men are speaking. It drives me insane.
It depends on the situation. Certainly there are many times when people get interrupted and it’s appropriate to not stand for it. Finish your thought
I’ve also seen it happen that a person who gets interrupted responds by continuing to talk and talk, and it becomes an obvious verbal pissing match. Know when to yield
