I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Capgemini (Gurgaon, Haryana) in Nov 2022
Interview
The recruiter reached out to me through LinkedIn and asked all my basis details(included current CTC and expected CTC). Post that my interview was scheduled on a weekend. After 2 rounds of interviews, I was told(through SMS, not even a phone call) that they cannot even match my current CTC and their budget is 15% less. What irks me is why were the interviews scheduled in the first place.
