My name is Pradeep Gulipalli, and I’m a Co-founder of the firm. Thank you for sharing candid feedback, and I sincerely apologize for the experience you had to go through.
We never got to speak during your interview process, so I wanted to share with you how we operate. As a company, we provide data science consulting & services in a global delivery model, working primarily with client business teams. This often requires presence of our consultants in client offices for in-person interactions (just as in a management consulting set-up). To avoid frequent multi-day travel, we try to hire consultants in the same location as our clients, and we usually have multiple hiring requirements at any point.
When speaking to candidates, we usually check for the best fit across multiple openings, subject to the candidates’ openness to relocate – some are open to relocation, while others have a strong location preference. We should have communicated this clearly to you and better set the context. Clearly, it looks like we did not do that and I apologize for the same; there was no unfair intent.
I wish you the very best for your career.
Regards
Pradeep
