14 Interview Rounds? Developer's Wipro Selection Story Triggers Online Discussion
Last Updated: Antara Mandal, in a now-edited post, claimed that she cleared 14 rounds of interviews before bagging the job of a developer at a Bengaluru company. Applying for a job can often feel like running a marathon, with companies laying out a number of obstacles in the name of interview rounds. It might be true that recruiters often come up with their own way of conducting interviews; the process can get tiring due to countless rounds of questions and answers. One such instance of a job interview has stirred a debate on the Internet after a woman claimed to have cleared 14 rounds of interviews before bagging her 'dream" job. In a now-deleted Instagram thread, Antara Mandal shared pictures of herself at a Wipro campus, proudly posing at her new company. Besides selfies inside the company building and its premises, Antara also shared a picture of her office ID card, offering it as proof of her new employment. In one of the photos, she could be standing indoors in front of a large Wipro logo, posing with both hands, and maintaining a big smile on her face. Dressed in a light yellow top and blue jeans, a Wipro employee badge is visible around her neck. 'After clearing 14 rounds of an interview, I have finally been selected for the 'DEVELOPER' role in 'WIPRO.' I create my own sunshine. Dreams are not what you see in your sleep; dreams are those that don't let you sleep," she reportedly wrote in her caption, as quoted by Livemint. In another post on Instagram, Antara shared the same set of pictures along with an edited caption. However, the particular point about going through 14 rounds of interviews became an instant topic of trolling, with many even opposing her claims. One of the commenters, claiming to be a former Wipro employee, asserted that there are mostly 4-5 rounds of interviews, while another one, who worked as a Wipro HR, added, '14 rounds at Wipro? There is a maximum of four rounds, including the HR discussion round." Others too chipped in with similar reactions with comments like 'As an ex-Wipro employee, I can vouch that there are max 4–5 rounds of interviews!!" and '14 rounds of interviews? That too just for the developer role… soo funny yaar." The Wipro developer has yet to clarify the confusion over her claims. Mandal, who was previously employed with Bajaj Housing Finance Limited, is currently based in Bengaluru. First Published:

Woman claims she cleared '14 rounds for developer job' at Bengaluru firm; trolled: ‘I create my sunshine'
A social media user, Antara Mandal, has triggered a discussion after claiming she was selected for the role of "developer" at a prominent Bengaluru-based IT company following "14 rounds of interviews." Mandal, who shared a picture of her office identity card on Instagram, has now become the subject of trolling on social media, with many users opposing her claim and calling it "funny." "After clearing 14 rounds of an interview, I have finally been selected for the 'DEVELOPER' role in 'Wipro.' I create my own sunshine. Dreams are not what you see in your sleep, dreams are those that don't let you sleep," Mandal wrote on Instagrm Threads. Screengrab from the viral post. Mandal, who was previously employed with Bajaj Housing Finance Limited according to her Instagram handle, shared a couple of photos – one of which shows her standing indoors in front of a large Wipro logo displayed on a wall. She is seen pointing at the logo with both hands and smiling, dressed in a light yellow top and blue jeans, wearing a Wipro employee ID badge on a blue lanyard, indicating she is likely a Wipro employee or visitor. In a series of photos, she is seen taking selfies from different angles while wearing her office ID card inside what appears to be the office campus. In another image, a Wipro employee ID badge is placed on a patterned fabric. The Wipro logo appears at the top, and the name Antara Mandal is displayed in white text on a dark blue circular background. However, her post did not sit well with a section of social media users who expressed disbelief at her claim. One commenter, claiming to be a former Wipro employee, vouched that there are at most "4–5 rounds" of interviews. A user, who claims to have worked as an HR at Wipro for three years, said: 'Wipro me 14 rounds? Max 4 rounds hota hai including HR discussion round.' Career_bishnu, a verified user, commented: 'May she was trying to say 14 interviews at different companies and finally got selected at Wipro.' A third user said: 'Wipro me maximum 2–3 round hote h.' Bosesusmita1, identifying as a former Wipro employee, wrote: "As an ex-Wipro employee I can vouch that there are max 4–5 rounds of interviews!!"
