I applied through university. I interviewed at Cognizant (Chennai) in Sept 2016
Interview
1.written test(aptitude,English,logical reasoning)
2.Technical interview(He didn't ask me anything about c or c++ and he asked me my department related question and he tried to confuse me in all the questions he asked and asked me to explain it until he gets satisfied
3.Hr interview(tell me about yourself,asked about my project,and then whats your interest and why do you wanna join in this company)
Two interviews with coding test and and aptitute test , pretty easy , aske about projects done and java oops questions also sql question , position was full stack developer
We had many rounds like 3 rounds before interview and interview was quite good. I got selected into cognizant as and programmer analyst trainee. I did not focus much on java, so due to that i Got 4 lpa
They asked very basic questions of reversing a string java basics and sql introduction and asked some data structures concepts finally few hr questions so on finally interviewer looks very strict interview got rejected
