One of the worst interviews I have faced to date. The panel seemed busy with something else instead of focusing on the interview. The interviewer often stayed on mute, and after repeatedly saying ‘hello’ 5–6 times, he would finally respond. When I asked for clarification on questions, he again went mute, and I had to repeat ‘hello’ several times before getting any response. It was a frustrating and unprofessional experience. After raising this with HR, I was told the interview would be rescheduled, but instead, I was abruptly informed of rejection and informed me that requirement on hold. It was disappointing to see such a lack of respect for a candidate’s time and effort.
