I applied through college or university. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Cognizant in Jun 2008
Interview
there was an aptitude test on the first day , which consisted of standard questions . clearing which , I had the group panel interview on the next day. They tested me on a wide range of topics , inculding electronic circuits ( I don't know why they wanted that knowledge for a software engineer). It also inculded behavioural questions . I was offered the job on the same day. Overall it was a very good experience and should be a moderate interview for a person who is strong in basics of his studies.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Draw the Lowpass and high pass rectifier and explain its operation,.
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.
First online aptitude round then personal interview , i went through a college campus recruitment process , two members in interview panel , one person in real another one in video
