HR personal called me to schedule the initial interview. She called me the second day after getting my details. It was suppose to be an online interview, however I was not available on that day. I requested her to shift the time by half an hour at least or any other day any other time. She hung up saying sorry. How rude. Just got the impression how to work in such a company long term
