I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Cognizant (Bhubaneshwar) in Dec 2013
Interview
There were 3 rounds for selection : 1. Written (Aptitude and English) 2. Technical (any topics irrespective of your branch) 3: HR
First round was not so difficult to crack . In second round ,As I was from Electrical and Electronics branch I was not confident with coding . Luckily they didn't ask a single question on C/C++ . All questions were from my branch topics . Basic electrical questions and some IQ questions were asked and I answered all correctly. After selection , HR round is just a formal conversation between you and HR where they will test your English speaking skills . Thats it !
