The recruiter contacted me and submitted my profile to client. In couple days, I got a call for interview. The interviewer was not at all prepared. I don't think he even looked ay my resume. The interview was virtual. When the call started, it was just the recruiter on line and so I said hi and closed my cam while I was on standby. The interviewer enters...He asked me to open my cam but didn't not open his. (Note to interviewer - if you are asking candidate to have camera, you should have yours on too) At this point I already did not want to work for his team. He did not give any sort of intro (not even his name/position) about project or himself. He did not even have any specific questions. He asked me to tell me about myself and my strengths & weaknesses. He did ask me if I worked in financial domains and on mobile apps. The call was over in about 7 mins. Even after he was done asking questions, he did not bother to give any details about project or client. When I asked he gave one liner response stating that they are working on enhancing mobile app for client. He was in such a hurry to hang up 1 hr call in few mins that I didn't bother to ask more questions. I selected interview difficulty Average but to be frank it wasn't even long enough to determine the level of difficulty.

1) HR person from India will call you. They are specifically chosen for their great English skills and of course they do not tell you they are calling from India. They have no HR people in USA. So, if you get hired as an employee, you basically have the same rights a consultant - aka NONE. 2) Assistant Program Manager will interview you over the phone. He did not ask me anything specific. I just spoke about my background. Assuming you can speak at a 5th grade level, you will be invited for a face to face interview. 3) Face to face interview had to be scheduled very late at 6:30 PM because the hiring manager was busy even though I planned it a few days in advance. I came in about 6:15 PM. Technical recruiter made me wait for half an hour. Then, he said the hiring manager is extremely busy so they will change up the process a bit, and he will have two other people interview me before the hiring manager sees me. So, the Indian technical recruiter had two Indian men who had nothing to do with the position I was being interviewed for took me to a dark cafeteria where they asked me about my experience and skill set. At 7:30 PM, I finally returned to the waiting room area. The two men who interviewed me went back to the conference room where the hiring manager was at and reported back what they thought of me. This actually took longer than planned as I was forced to wait another 20 minutes before being invited inside. While I was waiting, I was able to see through the glass they were just chatting and laughing, which I thought was quite disrespectful toward the candidate. Anyways, I disregarded this and finally went inside the conference room with the Indian hiring manager as the two Indian men and Indian technical recruiter left the room. The hiring manager quickly judged me to be young and inexperienced. He started drawing me a diagram about automation even though my resume was quite clear that I had done such work in the past. Then, he asked me what books I like to read for fun. As I starting probing him, he admitted there was no actual team yet, and the idea for the project was in its infancy. He asked me typical questions about my strengths and weaknesses. Seeing it was already 8:30 PM, the Indian manager started making dinner analogies about automation project that did not have a framework yet. Finally, he told me I have to be blunt with you. "You are not polished enough for me to put you in front of the partners. Let's talk in 2 to 3 years when you improve your verbal communication skills." Then, he felt sorry and said I am going to add you on LinkedIn and let you talk to another program manager in another phone interview. Needless to say, he did not add me on LinkedIn and there was no further contact from anyone at this company.
