I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Caterpillar (Chennai)
Interview
I got a call from the consultant. I took a telephonic followed by a 1 to 1 interview with General Manager Finance. I was informed about the selection but the entire formalities took place for over a month to receive offer letter. The Recruiting HR team is always been slow and requires a push from the operations.
