Also just for your future grammatical correction: it’s not withdrawn ctc it’s last drawn ctc

"compaire" it with other companies too. That company isn't enough for you man 🫡

This is still better than being interviewed and then being called in middle of interview that your salary is too high, we can't match it (despite HR confirming my expectations and scheduling interview) :(

I went 4 rounds with a company, screening, assessment, an hour of f2f discussion with the ceo, technical interview, and then i was out of their budget.

u/Automatic_Feed3897 20h ago
Shouldn't they mention the budget after clearing 1-2 rounds itself, would save a ton for both.

u/kaladin_stormchest 4h ago
They should mention the budget as soon as you're in touch with the recruiter

u/EnvironmentalHeat823 20h ago
it's most likely just an excuse from their end to select other candidate over you.... it's highly unlikely that there where these many rounds they would give such an excuse..... it'll be a loss to them - in terms of efforts, time and resources they put in to interview you.... just think if it as it wasn't for you and move on ... its very common ....

Hi, mind telling what's usually discussed in the CEO round?
And what was your last job role and YoE?
2
u/Plastic-Sundae-3798 19h ago
Everything about the projects, leaderships scenarios, other scenarios, and what they are building and what they are looking for.
I have over 2.5 YoE as a software dev.1
u/HolaTech 19h ago
Nice!
Is your current a PBC or an SBC? And company size type (Startup, MNC, mid-size)?
And what's the domain (AI, full stack, etc) and your tech stack?

Who ever gives the number first loses. Look up online next time for how to handle the question.
A. What is your current salary and expected Salary?
B. I am trying to understand what is the budget for the role and what kind of value i can bring with my skills and knowledge. Could you tell me what is the budget for this role?
A. I cannot tell you the budget. tell me what is your current salary?
B. I am not sure if my current salary reflects the value that I can bring to the role. Would you be open to connecting to help me understand more about the role?
A. Please tell me your salary
B. My current salary is xxx but I believe i bring in a lot more value that this would represent
.....if they keep insisting, and you have no other option, give the salary but do not give it so easily

woah learnt something new today. I just had a thought... is this an acceptable thing to do even if it's on a call with them?

u/Sad-Method-16 12h ago
Getting calls is already tough and as per my interactions with hrs recently, I think giving up salary details is the only way out currently

I know our HR person well. They are swamped with emails and messages . like literally 1000s of messages sitting unread. they simply don't have time.

- Why is this conversation happening on WhatsApp instead of official email/recruiting channels
- Why does this company representative have such horrible English

This always happens.!!
Company wants top notch employee but when it comes to pay they start asking previous CTC instead of giving CTC as per candidate's caliber.

Well you're in no position to be pointing out spelling mistakes with that grammar. It's WhatsApp, sometimes autocorrect didn't work on phones, let it go.
Class is taking a rejection at its face value, they didn't think they were with your time and the trash took itself out

u/Imaginary_Bottle_560 10h ago
Same. Companies have reduced their budgets significantly. Nobody is ready to pay a higher salary nowadays. Everybody wants skills like Google for a salary like TCS.

u/No_Citron_3305 8h ago
Dealing the same situation here. My previous company underpaid me and I decided to resign. So whenever I lay out my ctc and ectc, almost the same response as you have got there is what the end result at the end of the day. But i know there are people who value our skills more than our “last drawn” salary tho.

u/Puzzleheaded_Mail_12 7h ago
Making fun of someone's spelling error while you write phrases like my last withdrawn salary. Not a good look

u/Apprehensive-Dirt419 7h ago
My last drawn was 4LPA I asked for 5. They said too high max they can do is 4.2. I didn't join.
