I had first Karat round and then 1 DSA, 1 LLD, 1 HLD, 1 Behavioural and 1 manager Interview. Overwall they do nitpick alot and only expect the solution in specific way and if your answer is different than they expect, they rate you bad

I am going to highlight some of my experiences below. I felt the interview process was designed to set one up to fail and a waste of my valuable time. Firstly pitting candidates through numerous coding tests under a tight time schedule is not the way to see through another human. While I conducted all the coding tests and completed the results successfully, I still did not pass through to the next round. During these tests, I was asked to hold the screen so that a screen capture could be taken. This was a red flag suggesting the interviewer was not following my thorough explanation of the solutions I was implementing. Especially that the language I was using was not known to them and more particularly that I was extremely careful to ensure I deliver each and every thought I was making deliberately. The process felt unprofessional and one way. I did not feel confident in the interviewer's skills especially with regards to communication and etiquette. Two other red flags I have is the lack of feedback the company can provide. If you can't provide genuine feedback to your candidates and are concerned of legal repercussions; then you must be hiding something! Also the fact that one has to perform another technical test with an external organization does not give me confidence in this organization. The recruiter initially presents a very bright picture of how good it is to work in this organization and are open to proper follow through however later this felt more like a carrot dangling tactic. After putting much effort to ensure successful delivery, I felt this was an unfair process despite trying to put my best human foot forward.
