Collabera interview questions

I would like to share my interview experience with Collabera on this platform. I was invited for the initial round of interviews, which was a face-to-face interview with Ritika. I was shortlisted for the next round. My Profile was handed over to the concerned recruiter, Nisarg. For the initial round, they had scheduled an hour-long interview, but I had to wait for almost 45 minutes. The second round was a virtual interview with a panel named Kuwan. Even in the second round, the feedback was positive. The panel mentioned that I align my skills with the job description and would be a great fit. Later, the recruiter asked me to come for the final round of interviews, which was a face-to-face interview. However, there were multiple reschedules because the panel was unavailable. It took about 6 to 7 days to schedule the final discussion with the CFO of the company, Ranjit. Despite the multiple reschedules, I attended the face-to-face interview. As usual, I had to wait another 45 minutes before being called to the interview cabin. When I finally got there, the panel was busy on a call and didn’t let me sit down. This was unprofessional, and I had to wait again. Once the discussion started, it was good at first, but the questions were more about my personal and background information from my hometown and family. There were no questions related to the job. I was shortlisted later, but the panel offered me a different role that didn’t have the experience I had. Even though I had seven years of experience and let them know what I was good at, they kept telling me to get involved in a new role and promised to offer me a new position and better compensation. They were willing to offer any amount of money, but there was no compensation range for this role. They clearly confirmed this on the verbal offer. I had agreed to wait for a written offer later the next day when I called the recruiter regarding the offer. However, he informed me that I was not being shortlisted and had been rejected. He mentioned that I lacked sufficient relevant experience. I was confused because I had been shortlisted for the first, second, and third rounds. If my experience was not aligned with the job description, why was I shortlisted for all the rounds and sent the final discussion? This recruitment process was not professional. The recruiter was unaware of the feedback. I request that every candidate receive a brief clarification and attend an interview for further roles with this company. This was the worst interview experience I’ve had in my seven years of experience.

The selection process consists of an initial test, followed by two group discussion rounds, and then two personal interview rounds, designed to evaluate candidates’ technical skills, communication, problem-solving abilities, and overall suitability for the role
