I was invited for an interview where the manager appeared quite defensive throughout the conversation. At times, the discussion became unnecessarily personal and veered off-topic. Additionally, the process included a puzzle-solving exercise that seemed unrelated to the role. Even though my solution was correct, the manager insisted on a specific version that aligned with his own expectations.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Target (Bengaluru) in Apr 2025
Interview
Good and the HRs were really helpful and listened to all my doubts. The entire process took almost one month. I has 3 rounds, final one was in person. But everyone was very nice
