Interview Preparation Tips

Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - I had the opportunity to interview for a position at Razorpay on September 18th, coordinated by Shyama Ajith from the Talent Acquisition team. She was proactive in reaching out and scheduled my interview with Manager Arijit Gupta.

During the interview, I felt that there were moments where the manager's attention could have been more focused, but I made sure to present my qualifications and experiences to the best of my ability. The manager provided positive feedback, expressing that I would be a good fit for the team and discussing the potential for joining. However, I am still confused as to why my candidature did not move forward.

After the interview, I was informed that I would receive feedback within five minutes on Monday; however, I was contacted on September 24th and informed that I was not shortlisted for the second round.

While I appreciate the opportunity, I believe the feedback process could be improved for a better candidate experience
