The interview started with customary introduction and then I explained my day to day work. Answered their questions in details linking with my daily tasks. This was first round of interview. While I understand that hiring decisions involve several factors, I was a bit surprised to hear that my skills the ones which I use on a daily basis—were deemed not up to the mark, especially as I wasn’t given a formal opportunity to demonstrate my proficiency through a test or practical assessment. I would have welcomed the chance to showcase my capabilities in that area. That said, I respect your decision and remain genuinely interested in your organization.
