Interview preparation journey
Journey
It was a great experience.
In the second round, the interviewer was a little rude, his webcam was off, and when I asked some clarification questions, he didn't answer them well and responded late.
Application story
I got a call from the Paytm HR; I applied through the career portal.
I kept checking the portal, and then the HR called me. She asked a few basic questions, like where I am working, my expected salary, my current salary, job location, etc.
After 2 days, she scheduled the first round, which went well. Then, she scheduled the second round, which was average.
