I applied through college or university. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Cognizant (Chicago, IL) in Nov 2022
Interview
I took an automated interview (no human interviewer involved). I was given the option to rehearse for the interview. After submitting the video interview, I waited a few weeks before they scheduled for a phone interview. On the day of the interview, they did not show up.
Great interview experience. The interviewers were friendly, professional, and supportive. Whenever I couldn't answer a question, they patiently explained the expected approach and concepts, making the discussion comfortable, informative, and encouraging throughout.
I applied online. I interviewed at Cognizant (Chennai) in Jun 2026
Interview
only one round of technical interview for senior position, and hr execution was not proper, they didn;t connect when needed and no proper negotiation of salary either since shortlisting for interview
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.
