      Associate Consultant Interview

      10 Sept 2021
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Synopsys in Aug 2021

      Interview

      I was emailed by a recruiter to schedule a phone screening for the role. I replied right away, and got no response. So I sent another email, and got a response the next day. The phone interview went well, and they said they'd follow up with me "soon". After a week, I sent a polite follow-up email thanking them for their time. Another week goes by. Radio silence. I send another email, this time specifically requesting information on if I'm still in the running. Three days go by and all I get is "we are passing on your candidacy at this time". I request feedback, and get nothing but silence. Complete waste of time. Why bother reaching out to applicants if you can't be bothered to read their email replies?

      Associate Consultant Interview

      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Synopsys

      Interview

      Had a couple of interview rounds. The level of difficulty increased with the number of rounds i.e. last round being the most difficult. The first two-three rounds were focused on my experience, OWASP TOP 10 (deep), and other vulnerabilities. The last round was all about in-depth Penetration Testing. Learned a lot of new things. Got experience of a real security interview.

      Associate Consultant Interview

      8 Feb 2019
      Anonymous interview candidate
      New Delhi
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Synopsys (New Delhi)

      Interview

      Applied online through job portal. Got a call for face to face interview. The interview was conducted in Cigital office. There were almost 12 other people there. Coming to interview, I had 3 rounds. 1st round was basically asking anything and everything, the interviewers also weren't well versed on certain remediation methods. It was like rapid fire, as soon as I answered a question they went on to the next one. They weren't looking for technical depth but how much you know about various vuln. Cleared that round went on to second technical interview. Scenario based questions. I enjoyed it. Cleared this round. Then a managerial interview, amongst other things he asked me about my salary expectations. And then never heard back from them. I wasted my Saturday afternoon. They are mass recruiting right now and willing to take anyone who joins for peanuts as salary.
