I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Mastercard (New York, NY) in Oct 2022

Initially the recruiter responded quickly and setup the interview schedule without delay. However, after several interviews the recruiter stopped responding and the trail went cold. Not sure if this is normal but it made me wonder how employees are treated .

Question 1
Describe a time when the client’s expectations were not met, what did you do?
It was a reasonable interview, will not call it difficult.. the discussion was more around cultural fitment, global mobility and ability to adapt to a large matrix organization. Lot of stress was placed on communication skills vs technical skills
1 HR screening call and 3 rounds of interview with hiring manager and peers. The question was straightforwards and to the business. No much related to AI. Overall it was a good experience
I applied through other source. The process took 2+ months. I interviewed at Mastercard (Amsterdam) in Jul 2025
