I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Cognizant in Jan 2013
Interview
We were only asked behavioral and resume based questions. Some recruiters did ask technical questions though. Was not technical, it was a mass hiring event from my college. Over 300 students were hired from our university.
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
