I received an assignment from Fairfest, they wanted me to write digests for 2 mammoth sized write-ups. They shared examples with me for the ease of writing. I put forward my best efforts based on the examples Fairfest shared. A week later I got this response that they aren't happy with the quality of writing. However, I can assure you, my works were at par, rather better than the sample write-ups shared by them.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Fairfest Media (Noida) in Apr 2018
Interview
I was shortlisted after my portfolio was submitted. My interview was taken by a foreigner. The interview went well, he appreciated my work and said that he was convinced with my profile. he did not give any promises yet he got my hopes up.
He said that he will have to take the decision really soon as he was going back to his own country. He told me to wait one week for the update. After one week, I got another mail stating that they want one more week. I waited again but there was no reply after that. His phone switched off and no mail replies.
I'm only asking to give me an update on whatever the decision was. Even if it was negative, it would've allowed me to plan other opportunities.
This gave me a really bad impression of the company.
