It was mostly behavioral interview where they asked about challenging situations, communicating with other teams and how would you react to the co workers problems or difficult situations.
Other Data Collection Specialist Interview Reviews for Cognizant
there's 3 interviews. Phone screening, then with a manager, then HR. I interviewed for their vr/ar data collection position. Weirdly confidential and the manager wouldn't go into detail on the position, only a surface level description. Otherwise the process if pretty straight forward and will most ask basic interview questions.

Interview
After applying to this role two times in the span of a couple months, I had a disappointing experience with both interactions. The first time, I received an email from their talent acquisition group to schedule an HR screening call. I replied promptly and confirmed an appointment with their recruiter, but was ghosted and did not receive any follow-up. Moving on, I reapplied to this position within a couple months and received a HR screening call from a different recruiter. After a brief conversation, I was informed that a follow-up email would be sent within 1-2 weeks containing the next steps in the hiring process. I never received any response even after following up.
