I applied online. I interviewed at Cognizant (Bengaluru) in Feb 2024
Interview
The interview process at Cognizant typically involves an initial online aptitude test covering quantitative, logical reasoning, and verbal ability. This is followed by a technical interview where candidates are assessed on their coding skills, technical knowledge, and problem-solving abilities. Finally, there is an HR interview that focuses on communication skills, cultural fit, and general HR questions. The process may vary slightly depending on the role and experience level.

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.
