I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Cognizant (Chennai) in Mar 2014
Interview
2 technical interview, 1 hr interview. Average difficulty. Panel was very friendly. The interview was for about 20 mins. Panel helped me to get past my initial fear. More abstract questions were asked . the interviewer tried to ask programming questions but he felt he asked too many questions and finished the inteerview
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.
I applied through other source. I interviewed at Cognizant (Pune) in May 2026
Interview
Interview process was straight forward. Two technical Interview L1 and L2 rounds happened. L1 was easy with basic java questions. But L2 was the actual interview. They were asking every concept very deeply.
