I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Cognizant (Bengaluru) in Aug 2022
Interview
I cleared 1st technical then HR round. Then they told me another round of interview is required. I gave that and cleared it. Then, I got the mail that I have cleared all the rounds and we will get the back with salary discussion and send you offer letter. Now this has become history. No offer letter , HR not receiving calls and getting random cognizant mails for drive and other interviews to attend, got referred by someone from cognizant.
Do not waste our time and panels time. Moreover they said they will give 20% hike on my CTC for 9.6 years experience into Automation QA which I didn't like it still I said Ok thinking let's have this offer letter at least.

Well the interview was purely technical, the idea of professional world is if the candidate is expected to be on camera the same due diligence must be done by interviewer as well, Overall the worst experience of interview as expected from company with series of bad reviews.
