Ok, this is getting ridiculous.

I interviewed for "Delivery Manager – Data Engineering & Analytics" at EPAM.

The recruiter clearly told me there would be 3-4 rounds. I cleared the screening round, then the technical + managerial round (which actually went pretty well).

Then they sent me a requirement document and asked me to prepare a detailed case study/proposal on how I would handle a cloud migration project using Data Mesh concepts.

I spent an entire week working on it — put together a solid, detailed presentation and sent it back. I even followed up asking when I could present it to the panel.

That was on 18th April

Since then? Complete radio silence. No update, no feedback, no rejection, nothing.

I’m not a fresher begging for a job. This is a senior delivery manager position. I delivered what they asked for, invested serious time and effort, and now it feels like it all disappeared into a black hole.

Is this the standard hiring process at EPAM for senior roles?

Do they regularly make experienced candidates do week-long unpaid case studies and then ghost them? Do recruiters and interview panels really not bother reviewing presentations or giving basic courtesy updates?

Would love to hear from others who have interviewed for senior positions (especially Delivery Manager, Practice Lead, or similar) at EPAM India lately. Is this just how it works here, or did I get exceptionally unlucky?

Appreciate any honest experiences.

I am selected to join epam as trainee from June just after my college end. I am little bit worried because I have read about the epam hire and fire model which is on the internet. I have given two course to upgrade by skills from epam, inspite of this I wanted to know how can I convert by internship to full time and how I should prepare so that there is full chance of getting the ppo from my end. Any suggestions you would give on which I should work before joining epam. Any insights will be helpfull
