Interview
Waste of time and effort
I had completed two technical rounds and two HR round with photon and all the salary discussions happened , they promised me to release offer but they never issued , making the entire process feel like a complete waste of time. Despite reaching out to the HR team, I received no response. Several HR representatives contacted me throughout the process, but they, too, eventually stopped responding. Overall, it was a very disappointing and unprofessional experience.
As a professional courtesy, I believe a prompt communication or acknowledgement would be appreciated, especially considering the time I've invested in this process.

Interview
There are one HackerRank test and 2 rounds of technical interview. Interview process was not transparent HR first told there will be only one round technical interview if it gets through I will be getting offer, but thats not true, After 45 minutes long interview they called for 2nd round interview scheduled next day, The second round was about 1hr, they asked many unnecessary questions from Java to Android. Finally, the interview is very silly asking 8+ years lead, internal methods of adapters and asking to write Alaram Code with specific method names mentioning.
