I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Cognizant (Chennai) in Aug 2010
Interview
As a fresher i attended aptitude question as my initial round of interview. Once i got through that phase i was called for a technical interview where i was been questioned regarding my engineering background syllabus and was asked to write some small code snippets. I was also asked to showcase my communication, leadership and few other skills as part of my engineering life. After that round i was called for the next round of interview where i had to meet the HR where she asked me about my background. she also asked to tell what were my strengths and weakness and how i would overcome them.
At work always listen to what your peers say to you. During meetings do not just keep quite and listen. if you have any knowledge about the topic kindly come forward an put forth your ideas.
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.
3 rounds of interviews with a technical interview. The technical interview involved questions on Java and sql. They were mildly difficult. The first 2 rounds were not so difficult, lots of situational judgement questions
