Has anybody else interviewed at oleria securities onsite?|Bad expeirence
Summary
Had a negative interview experience with Oleria Securities, where the interview process raised multiple red flags. The HR was on leave, and the Head of India (HOI) handled all duties, including contacting candidates and monitoring Glassdoor. The interview questions were a mix of medium and easy DSA problems, but the overall process lacked transparency and professionalism.
Full Experience
Had multiple red flags throughout the process. None of the people other than HOI(Head of india) profile was visible on linkedin page of company who I met throughout the process. HR was on leave and head of india was doing all duties from calling candidates to taking them in office, sending messages on linkedin and monitoring their glassdoor page. They asked two medium question in 1st DSA round then onsite loop began
In onsite they asked another two question which were easy dsa type(count number of island) and told about the company. They also mentioned me to give 50LPA CTC which I couldn't beleive on this level of interview. On the day itself they gave me their bottle as joining gift before discussion with CTO next day. The office looked too small for what head of india was saying to double the company size this month.
Had a coffee meeting with HOI after the interview where I got to know they have pipped people in 1 month for bad performance and justifying that it will not happen to anyone else becos they are "MNC". They also said attrition rate is high so thats why they are doing onsite loop becos people leave in 6 month. I was already not impressed by thier interviewers becos they themself lacked knowledge of time complexities of basic data structures.
Had CTO round next day discussing problem on past project and CTO(who has worked as Principle engineer at microsoft) lacked basic knowledge of tech like locks, algorithms etc but I was able to explain my project somehow. Asked HOI about any update and they said I am rejected because my projects don't align with the company.
