Regretting my offer negotiation
Hello Peeps, I need your honest opinions. I am working as a Team lead for SAP BASIS with 8.5 YOE. Cracked an interview at a fairly good product based company. My ctc is 16.5 F+2.5 VP. I demanded 25 lpa fixed considering 50% hike on my current Fixed. Now one month before joining my colleagues have been saying that I should have negotiated definitely more than this And that I made a big mistake. I do have a similar offer but I do not want to counter offer since I have made a professional commitment to them. Thanks 😊

I applied via Campus Placement and was interviewed in Aug 2024. There were 4 interview rounds.

Round 1 - Aptitude Test 

Aptitude test had Verbal, Abstract Reasoning, Critical Reasoning, Pseudo Code, MS Office, Cloud and Networking Security. Try to attempt every qns for sure as U also dont have 'negative marking'. Mostly, for reasoning side linear seating arrangements were asked in many ways (eg, 2 rows, facing this or that direction..), Flow chart based just substituing, following the flow given and making ans correct, reasoning all qns were answerable just dont get tensed, inorder to save time try to solve these kind of qns in a single go., then number sequence, patterns. Main trick: Try to ans all qns. After Apti round, within next 5 to 10 mins eligibility of next round or not will be displayed.

Round 2 - Coding Test 

It was basic qns and solved all test cases in 1st qn and half in 2nd qn., like I had given with an array, and asked to say like if array is {2,3,6,1,9} ans is EvenOddEvenOddOdd. Next qn was max no. of consecutive days temperature decrease count. It was bit time consuming like if given, {0,-4,-6,-7,-10,3,-5,-9,-20} we have consecutive days decrease from 1st (0) to 5th element(-10) and it makes count 5. next u ccan see from 7th(-5) to 9th(-20) its count of consecutive days decrease is 3. now max of these is 5 so ans is 5. Dont panic, try to solve 1 qn fully or both qns as far as u can.
