Hi, guys! I went to an interview at Zenta for the position of Tele HR Recruiter, and I cleared the first round of the interview with the executive. After that, there was a second round conducted by the manager which went well. I answered the questions, and the manager asked me to sit down and told me that they would get back to me. After five minutes, an executive came and informed me of the feedback that I was not open enough and not suitable for the Tele HR position. I just want to ask, I have 9 months of experience in tele recruiting. What went wrong in that interview? I didn't understand.

Dear Rohan,
Even I don't understand what employers want in an employee. There are lots of people who are talented, intelligent, work hard, and have experience, but could not clear the interview because employers say they are not open enough. What is this? How can they judge the ability, skills, and talent of an individual in a five-minute interview?
Experts, please let us know. Rohan, in your case, only the employer knows the answer.
Waiting for the answers from the experts.

Alright, for both of you, here is a simple thing I would like you both to understand.
The reply to the first question is that... Indeed, you might have 9 months of experience; they might be looking for stability, i.e., people who are more stable in their jobs. Nobody wants you to work for just 9 months and then look for other opportunities.
Sometimes, you may not have the skills the employer is expecting. However, there are faults on the employer's side too. But I'm not too harsh. I think for Rohan, the first guy, when you asked us the question, I looked into your writing skills, use of grammar, etc. I'm not sure how you got that 9 months of experience. I'm not being harsh; I'm just telling you, no hard feelings. And you are expecting a job change.
Also, the first question an employer asks you is, "What's the reason for a job change?" I'm sure you would have definitely complained about your previous employer (although this is my guess).
Let's see what other HR professionals will reply.
Anyways, I'm open to learning from others and from you as well.
Finally, to relish and inspire you for doing your normal chores, here is the quote:
"When life gives you lemons, make grape juice out of it, then sit back, relax, and let the world wonder how you did it!"

Hi Rohan,
I have certain supporting statements as to why you have been rejected; these are some of the possibilities that I found out.
First of all, as mentioned by Ajay above, your written communication has a lot of grammatical mistakes (e.g., the use of past and present tense).
Additionally, for tele-calling, the way you present yourself or the company you represent is very important. The way you speak in the first few seconds determines the duration of the call; people can understand whether to continue listening to you or to disconnect the call.
You should have a good command of your communication. Develop yourself in all these aspects, and soon you will have a better career.
I hope I have not mentioned anything wrong.
