I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Cognizant (Bengaluru) in Feb 2019
Interview
There were three rounds of interview in the overall process. The first two rounds were technical and the third one was HR interview. The first round of technical round were mostly about explaining the project and some fundamental questions. Second round was conducted by a manager and the questions were thoughtful, not straight forward. HR fixes a salary and ask you to agree to it.

Question 1
First let me be clear, i couldn't crack it due to my network issue in between my interview.In DSA, they asked only one question which was to find the largest element from an array. and asked about my projects and some follow up questions on the tech stacks i used to build my project And absolutely your interview will get started with the introduction and be careful while giving intro as faking anything may hurt you during interview.
The interview was held of 40-45 minutes. Several questions were asked based on the projects I have done. Then the interviewer moved to Python and SQL. At the end, 4-5 basic HR questions were asked. Interview was moderately easy.
