I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Cognizant in Oct 2010
Interview
Contacted by phone and telephonic interview scheduled. Interview was basic. It varies for each interview. They had an opening to fill immediately so it was a walkthrough. the HR will try to fetch you for dirt cheap. Stick to your reasonable demands.
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.
