Interview
The interviewers are actually really nice and humble. They understand candidates well and never try to intimidate you. Their questions are totally reasonable, though a few might seem off-topic just to meet their client's specific needs. It's a great learning experience that shows you exactly where you can improve. Just don't panic! Let your words flow naturally instead of freezing up. Stay confident and keep your answers structured and clear.

Question 1
tell me about yourself, and what did you do in between the graduation, and why this role and why you??
The interview went smooth and with guidance of the interview process and steps it was a good experience overall and the HR's are very ggod in structuring the walk-in and however it went for all day completing the final round
"The event suffered from poor coordination and disorganized management. The venue was severely overcrowded, and the lack of a structured methodology for selecting candidates undermined the integrity of the entire process. Significant improvements are needed for future sessions."
