I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Cognizant (Chennai) in Sep 2016
Interview
Easy interview to check technical ability and communication skills. They are patient to listen to what the candidiate has to say. technical round where they check the technical ability of your subjects followed by a hr round where they check your personality and skills
Two interviews with coding test and and aptitute test , pretty easy , aske about projects done and java oops questions also sql question , position was full stack developer
We had many rounds like 3 rounds before interview and interview was quite good. I got selected into cognizant as and programmer analyst trainee. I did not focus much on java, so due to that i Got 4 lpa
They asked very basic questions of reversing a string java basics and sql introduction and asked some data structures concepts finally few hr questions so on finally interviewer looks very strict interview got rejected
