I applied online. I interviewed at Cognizant (Hyderabad) in Jun 2025
Interview
Very good experience...they make you feel very comfortable and doesn't make you feel that you're bad. Cognizant basically has 3-4 rounds overall. They'll give you all links no matter how you write the rounds...everybody will receive all rounds links except interview.
This was oncampus. I sit in Aptitude round, It was mostly basics of computer science, aptitude questitions. Second round was mainly for DSA and offline interview in another college. The interview included some computer science fundamentals and I shared my experiences in past, about projects I built, internships I did.
I applied through college or university. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Cognizant (Bengaluru) in Aug 2025
Interview
The first round was a communication round, where they tested our speaking and listening skills — it was quite easy. The second was the technical round, which included two coding questions (easy to medium level), two SQL questions, and one question based on HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, all to be completed within 120 minutes. The final round was a Technical and HR interview conducted via video conference, where the interviewer asked me to introduce myself, followed by one coding question, one SQL question, some OOPs concepts, and basic questions related to the programming language I work with (in my case, C#).
