I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at HCLTech (Bengaluru)
Interview
I applied for lead engineer post. I got good feedback from recruiter and from the portal. And HCL had contacted portal and said that I have cleared first round. After two weeks I inquired about my interview status in HCL. They said we didn't get positive feedback. I don't know why they said like that. They are not checking for person knowledge. They always select the person who asks for less salary even he is not knowledgeable.
