I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Cognizant (Chennai) in Oct 2014
Interview
Interview was very casual. Basic computer science was tested and focussed on data structures and networking. Questions were asked from my area of interest too. The interviewer was very friendly and helped me even when i got stuck on some answer
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
