Starting in Sep too, but no on-boarding email except for the previous one weeks ago asking to provide additional documents.

IBGT is ran like NS culture. Also you won't go far as a SWE here. Nothing much to learn, they mostly want BAs who don't code. Also, what is WLB lol. You have to do deployments on Friday nights which spans to Sat morning with no OIL. Also Friday, you are expected to report at your normal time.

Tech stack wise: Microsoft Excel, Microsoft Teams, Microsoft Outlook, Microsofr Powerpoint, Confluence, Jira, Jenkins

This is true. Burn weekends

Does anybody know when will application open for 2023 SEED? it's already nearing the end of Q3..

Sadly this is true, I have heard horror stories in those departments.

Are you posted there or just there for orientation?

Heard rumors that this program is closed and no longer open in 2023? Some of my friends who did hackathon early this year and passed but asked for Jan 2023 intake just got told that position is no longer available

seems like economy quite bad huh? shopee mass layoff, citibank closing branches overseas, FAANG companies also freeze hiring.

Stay safe guys. Tech market dying already.
