Solicité el puesto en persona. El proceso duró 4 días. Acudí a una entrevista en CRISIL (Bengaluru) en ago 2021
Entrevista
5 rounds of interview with all levels of people's at the organisation
It was a clear transperant process
Each and every round of interview was not so difficult but at the same time it was very different and unique
Solicité el puesto a través de un captador. Acudí a una entrevista en CRISIL (Londres, Inglaterra) en sept 2020
Entrevista
Two interviews back to back online. One with a manager and the other with an associate on the team I would be working with. The associate interview was a good conversation. The manager interview was a joke. The person was hard to understand, using a terrible microphone setup and was constantly being distracted by something going on in their household.
Turned off their camera twice and muted themselves multiple times to talk to someone off screen while I was answering questions. Incredibly rude and distracting.
