Holding profile is a rejection?
I had an interview at Cognizant two weeks ago and cleared the final round, including document verification. After the interview, the interviewer personally reached out to me to discuss the roles and responsibilities in detail and also requested me to expedite the process of sharing my documents for verification. However, during the salary discussion, their offer didn’t align with my expectations, they offered a 30% hike and were not open to any negotiation. Later, the HR mentioned that they would hold my profile. Does this mean it’s a rejection? I haven’t received an email or any proper closure from them yet.

...you will come across all IT companies. Just learn to survive, upskill and excel. Do not depend on your job or salary, have multiple streams of income without moonlighting and switch jobs whenever you get a good opportunity. Work for your own success not for the company.
