I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Cognizant (Hyderābād) in Jun 2019
Interview
I went to the interview and had a very very bad experience, after waiting for 2 hours cleared 1st round of TR interview, and then waited for 3hours and cleared 2 nd round TR then waited for 3 n half hours for HR interview
Finally HR was so rude and no way he is polite.
I lost my whole day, if they donot have openings why you need to interview all the rounds? Moreover they dont have panels as well for conducting interviews, there were no HR present till night 7:30
Very very bad and late Recruitment process...
