I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Cognizant (Hyderabad) in Oct 2022
Interview
Covered all basics of C#, SQL, .NET and few core concepts. Also, covered few topics on entity framework, Ado and Solid principles.
Total process took around 1 hour, it was interactive.
Cognizant interview is having two rounds of technical Interview followed by a HR interview at the end. First round will be basic questions, and second round of technical interview will be little depth to the knowledge.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Cognizant (Pune) in Dec 2023
Interview
Overall experience was good, the application and interview process was streamlined perfectly with online portal.
Interviewers were great too in asking the questions and making candidate comfortable.
Interviewers had a good idea on what to ask on the given experience level, were interested in knowing problem solving skills rather than pasting questions from chatgpt (as many others are doing)
