I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Accenture (Mumbai)
Interview
My interview was scheduled by one of the HRs of Accenture from Bangalore. It was scheduled for 27th April. After reaching the venue, I realized that it was a walk-in with pre-registered candidates. I was asked to fill-up a very long form. After waiting for 1-1.5 hrs, I was called for technical discussion. It was for 45-50 mins. According to me, it went well. Then I was asked to wait outside.
Again, after a wait of around 1 hr, HR called me. She started the HR discussion with the questions about my profile, my work-ex. She asked me about my career plan. my notice period etc. She asked questions on some real time non-technical problems( negotiation with client on time line etc.) At the end, she told me that she is done with the interview. I asked her whether I should wait outside or leave. She asked me if I am carrying all the documents with me. I said yes. But after thinking for 2 seconds she told me that I would come to know about the process after one day and I could leave that time. I waited for their call for 4-5 days. Finally, I called up the HR, who had scheduled my interview. But he told me that he had not got the feedback yet and to wait for 3-4 days. They never called me back. After calling the HR 3-4 times, finally after 3 weeks he told me that the project for which I was interviewed has gone on hold. If it starts again, they will call me. He told me that I have not been rejected. I found it very strange. Should I keep waiting for their project to come live again.
