Simpy Aggarwal filed this complaint against Empower It Systems Pvt. Ltd. on Apr 13, 2019

I was called for an interview with Newgen for C*H (contract to hire). I had already confirmed from the consultancy that my *.* yrs career gap will be accepted for c*h. But they interviewed me for a permanent role because of my good academic performance. I was selected and I sent my documents for approval. Then I got to hear that due to my career gap they won't take me for permanent. I was ok with this and was ready to go for c*h (through a consultancy named Empower It Systems Pvt Ltd.)
I got a call from Empower that I was selected in Newgen through Empower. I was done with a salary discussion as well and sent my documents for approval. But the next day I got a call from Newgen that the panel wanted a small discussion with me. I asked them if another interview was going to happen and the response was no. I went for their so-called discussion. But they interviewed me technically. I was not aware of this interview because I was told that a normal discussion was to be done. I have never seen a company doing salary discussion and document verification first and then taking the technical interview and that too after a successful interview. When I asked the consultancy about this fraud interview, they said that they were not aware of this interview. I think they should close their firm if they don't even know what is being done with the candidates they send. After *-* missed calls to Empower, I got a message that my profile was on hold because I have done my education from LPU. What a lame reason they gave because I have one known person who has already worked with Newgen and is from LPU.
Then I had a conversation with the HR of Newgen (Mr Devendra Kashyap) and got to know another brand new reason for my rejection through consultancy and it was my career gap. Till the time I went for the interview and was selected, my career gap was an objection for the permanent role only, but immediately after *-** days their policy is changing and this gap becomes an issue for consultancy as well. Whenever I call to the Newgen HR they blame Empower and whenever I call to the consultancy they blame Newgen. But the one who suffers is me and not the consultancy or the company.
Empower consultancy provided me with wrong information and tried to mislead me by giving the lame reason for the university. My resume was already with Newgen in which my career gap was clearly shown but then also they interviewed me for permanent and after the successful interview, they denied my selection because of the career gap. They should clearly examine the resume before calling any candidate for an interview. Betraying the candidate might be a simple task for the consultancy or the company but it hurts the feelings of the candidate. Will never ever suggest anyone join Newgen or to through Empower IT Systems Pvt Ltd for an interview because you never know when you will be called for an untold interview that too after your salary discussion and will be given lame reasons for your rejection.
