No reputable company is getting free work from you. When will this myth stop? They have entire teams dedicated to answering the question they assigned you with a 100x+ greater volume of data.

Hello Fishes,

I had given interview
Mindtree and cleared both technical rounds. On Tuesday 29 March 2022, I got a call from HR for the final discussion. After that I have not received any response.

I have been calling the HR and her manager, both are not responding to mail or calls.

Is there a way to get some information if my candidature is still in progress or is this delay natural? I have another offer from another company, but am more interested in joining Mindtree.

Hi, I recently applied to a salesforce company and was selected for an interview. I had interviews with a recruiter, department manager and hiring manager and did well in them all. My final interview was with the CEO which lasted for about 10 minutes. He said he has read the notes from the previous interviews and the recruiter will get in touch with you. What are the chances I do not get this job given that I did well in all 3 interviews leading to the final interview with the CEO?

I’ve been offered a position that I’m really excited about. Their initial offer was 10K more than the top of the salary range they gave me for the position when I asked during the interview process and at the top end of the salary requirements I set for myself. My partner thinks I should still negotiate for more even though I’m happy with the offer. Am I an idiot if I don’t negotiate in this case? Realistically, I don’t think I’d get much more than that, but should I negotiate out of principle?

Currently interviewing with Facebook (Meta) and looking for advice from other Technical Recruiters that recently joined. I’d be leaving a great company after less than 1 year, but I’d get the chance to upgrade my leveling (perhaps even mgmt) with the bonus of getting experience at a FAANG company.
