I would like to share my experience regarding my interview with Capgemini Mumbai. I have not seen a worst interview process than this. I got a telephonic call from Cap for automation testing role. I had an offer from a leading bank, Patni, suntel etc but I was looking for mass driven service provider like IBM, Cap, Cognizant etc. So I was excited to get the call from Capgemini. Just to inform you guys that I had already resigned from my prevous company and I was on notice period( 2 weeks left).
My telephonic interview went very well and the manager who took the interview was very excited and wanted me in board asap. I again got a call from Cap HR after two days and I was asked to come for the second face to face discussion round. I reached the venue and my turn came after a long wait of around 3 hrs. Everything went well in the second round also and they told that they will inform me the final decision.
After two days I received an email from their HR that I have been selected and I need to send scanned copy of my documents. Without wasting any time I sent all the cpoies. My apckage in my current company was 4.8 lcs and I demanded 6.5lcs from capgemini(3.5 yrs exp in QTP).
I had only 1 week left in my current organization and I had to join the leading bank for which I had accepted the offer already. I didnt get any calls from Capgemini for 3 days and I myself contact them for my HR salary discussion round. After many tries I got a call from the HR and he asked me all sort of HR question which I answered confidiently. Finally my salary was nogotiated to around 6.3lc which was okay for me. HR said that he has to take approval from higher management and he will send me the vreakup shortly. I was happy. This happned on thrusday. Friday was my last day in my current company. I didnt get any mail from Capgemini HR till friday evening. I contacted him and he said he has still not got approval from management. Friday went and saturday came my last day was already over and I was not sure which company I am going to join on monday. On saturday to my surprise I got a call from the same HR and he said that my candidature has been dropped my the management and he asked me join the bank instead of Capgemini. This was SHOCKING for me. They didnt even offer my any pther package or gave me any expalaination why my candidature was dropeed.
Let me tell you guys the HR department in Cap is of no use and worthless. I sent many mails to them but they didnt reply. I asked them what will I tell capgemini about this experience if I try to give intervie again after 6 months( as they ask in the form abt previous interview result with capgemini) I dont know whether I was selected or rejected.
BEAWARE OF CAPGEMINI!!!
