Yesterday, I travelled nearly 400 kilometers to attend an interview at Havells
To my surprise, the HR rejected me within a minute, just by looking at the fact that I had worked with five companies in the last 10 years. I truly wonder—why don’t they shortlist candidates properly before calling them for a face-to-face round? Most of the attendees had traveled long distances, and all of us are currently working as Area Sales Managers. This kind of poor planning shows a serious lack of common sense and respect for candidates’ time and effort. Let’s be real—most people start their careers with a salary of ₹10,000 to ₹15,000. Obviously, no one can stick to the same pay scale for 10 years. Changing companies for career and financial growth is a practical and valid choice. What kind of HR psychology is this?
