The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Flipkart (Bengaluru)
Interview
I was contacted by HR for this role. After that I had 2 telephonic rounds then they called me to Flipkart office for more rounds. I had to give 5 more rounds. HR told me that the feedback was positive from interviewers and will let me know in next week but I didn't receive the call from them. When I called HR, she said that hiring committee did not select me and they can't take it forward. Utter waste of time. They could have told me in the beginning where they did not find me good. Why did they had to take all the rounds and give false hope that the feedback was positive from interviewers? Also interviewers themselves were not strong technically. Hated the problem solving round cause interviewer was very rude from the start. He was not even listening. The reason they told me does not make sense. They literally wasted time. Very disappointed with Flipkart.
