I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Cognizant
Interview
After clearing AMCAT, they asked to come and attend interview.They unnecessarily wasted all of the candidate time. Telephonic Interview conducted just for name shake.The interviewer doesn't know the experience at all.Interviewer asked same questions for all candiadate. Upto my performance i did well, but without any valid reason they rejected.Not only for me almost all candidate like that.

I applied online. I interviewed at Cognizant (Chennai) in June 2026
Interview
only one round of technical interview for senior position, and hr execution was not proper, they didn;t connect when needed and no proper negotiation of salary either since shortlisting for interview
The interview was primarily technical, concentrating on C#, .NET, SQL, and API concepts. Questions tested understanding of core principles and practical application. The process was straightforward, professional, and focused on technical depth.
I applied online and got a calll back, had 4 rounds in total. first was a behavioral phone call just casual talks about your skills and when can you start working and general questions, then two coding rounds in hackerrank - was asked to code in java although the job was for python and finally HR.
