I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Polycab India Limited
Interview
The process began on a positive note: I received a call from an HR recruiter regarding a Campus Recruitment role. The conversation was enthusiastic, and the recruiter expressed strong interest in moving forward, inviting me to discuss next steps in person/office.
However, after this initial call, there was complete silence for about a week. Despite the encouraging tone, I received no updates and had to send multiple follow-up emails/messages to get any response. Only after persistent chasing was an interview finally scheduled. When the interview took place, I discovered that the original Campus Recruitment position had apparently been closed shortly after the initial outreach (reportedly the day after the recruiter's call). Instead, the discussion shifted to a different role: Senior Leadership Hiring. I was not informed about this significant change in advance: neither during scheduling nor prior to the interview itself. The interview focused on the senior role, which required extensive experience in executive-level recruitment. As my background aligned more with entry/mid-level campus hiring, it was clear there was a mismatch, and my candidacy was rejected on the grounds of needing a more senior and experienced profile.
Overall, while the initial contact was promising, the experience was disappointing due to poor communication, lack of transparency about the role change, delayed responses, and the need for repeated follow-ups. It felt disorganized and disrespectful of the candidate's time.
