      Software Development Engineer Interview

      26 July 2016
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a staffing agency. I interviewed at Tesco

      Interview

      My interview experience with Tesco Bangalore is the worst experience that I ever had anywhere. I took an online test and solved both the coding exercises given and cleared the aptitude test. Then appeared for 2 f2f rounds and almost answered 90% of the questions accurately. The next day I was informed that I havent cleared the interview :) I have been offered by the top most companies in Bangalore including Microsoft earlier. There is something seriously wrong with the recruitment representatives of the firm. Would be good for the company if they could find and fix the problem before the news spreads.
