I recently interviewed for the SAS Programmer role at IQVIA Bangalore, and the experience was pretty disappointing, especially for a company with such a strong reputation. First, there was a serious lack of transparency. Despite asking multiple times, I never got a clear job description or any real details about the role or interview process. After the first-round technical screening, I was invited to the second round without any explanation of what to expect, which made it really hard to prepare properly. The actual interview was uncomfortable. While I get that interviewers want to understand a candidate’s background, some of the questions felt irrelevant and way too personal. I was asked about my decision to return to India from U.S., which I didn’t mind answering, but then it went further asking about my family background, my parents' jobs, and even a comment implying that I was only applying to have something lined up when I returned. That felt unnecessary and completely unrelated to the role. Questioning my personal matters, which had nothing to do with my ability to do the job, left me with a really negative impression of the company. I respect their decision not to move forward with my application, but I think the interview process needs to be a lot more professional.

eventhough the interviews went good , i hated the process company took a gap of a month between both rounds of interview and after the last round they didnt mention if its successful till date. i respect the company hope it values the time of candidates who are there to attempt even they select or not rather leaving the candidate clueless

The initial round involves interviewing with the local HR team. In the subsequent round, you'll meet with the global team. Finally, the third round consists of an interview with the local team.
