I applied online. I interviewed at Cognizant (Bengaluru) in Oct 2025
Interview
The interview process included an HR round followed by a technical round. Questions were based on basic concepts, communication skills, and understanding of fundamentals. Overall experience was smooth, professional, and well organized.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
They asked basic questions about Java fundamentals and projects.
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
