I applied through a staffing agency. I interviewed at Impetus Technologies (Los Angeles, CA) in Mar 2020
Interview
This is summary of experiences of 100s of candidates who interviewed with Impetus IN USA.
This company is known for corruption, lies and how they cheat clients. They are disgrace to IT community with their policies and exploitation practices. Impetus also known for posting positions even when there are no real positions available just to cheat interview takers and exploit USCIS and US immigration regulations.
If they arrange interviews on weekends or not giving info about which client they are interviewing for, don't accept interviews. 99.99% chance they are just fooling you as it is policy inside the company to keep taking interviews as it generates income to certain departments inside the company.
Stay away from this company's interviews if location is USA as 99% are fake interviews. At this point it is common knowledge among many vendor companies that dealt with this company directly ( in their own words) and 100s of candidates.
Anyways Good luck for your job search.
