I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Cognizant (Plano, TX) in Feb 2024
Interview
I'd like to provide some feedback to the team who conducted my interview. They didn't turn on their video camera and asked me to turn mine on, then abruptly ended the conversation. While I understand they may have been looking for a different skill set, I recommend they maintain professionalism during interviews. Even if they choose not to hire a candidate, they should end the conversation respectfully.
I would also suggest that interviewers prepare a set of questions and be prepared before conducting an interview, avoiding asking questions without proper sentences.
This was one of the worst experiences I've had, but
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
They haven't formulated clear questions yet, but here's what I've gathered:
1. Explaining dimensional modeling.
2. Understanding facts and dimensions and their functionality.
3. Exploring the necessity of surrogate keys.
4. Sharing experiences with unstructured or semi-structured data.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Cognizant
Interview
I had two phone interviews and two Skype interviews. Could have the process a bit quicker but can’t control that. So I would highly recommend this cognizant. The interviews were very help ful in describing the job description.
