J'ai postulé via un établissement d'enseignement supérieur ou universitaire. Le processus a pris 1 jour. J'ai passé un entretien chez Cognizant (Hyderâbâd) en janv. 2011
Entretien
easy aptitude, one basic technical interview round
1st round: There were about 450 candidates in the first batch(9 a.m) waiting for the interview, after verification of our documents all documents mentioned in interview call letter are mandatory) they took us to a Hall where there were 15 interviewers taking interview to 15 different candidates, this round was just a formality they just wanted to check whether the candidate is aware of the job profile or not. Since the profile was IT-IS they explained about the job profile, they said there is no scope for programming in this job.., you might never get a chance to switch your profile or you may get a chance.., you may have to work in service desk for the next 1 and half or 2 years., do you have any problems working on night shifts and relocation., after explaining all these they asked whether i was interested to work on this job and agree to their terms and conditions. They also asked questions like why cognizant?? why don't you go into development?? where do you see yourself in next 3 to 5 years??

J'ai postulé en ligne. J'ai passé un entretien chez Cognizant (Chennai) en juin 2026
Entretien
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.
