I applied through college or university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Cognizant (Hyderabad) in Sep 2025
Interview
The interview process was structured into three rounds. In Round 1, we had communication and aptitude tests to assess verbal ability and logical reasoning. Round 2 focused on coding and technical fundamentals, with MCQs on SQL, Python, and cloud computing, along with Python coding questions. Round 3 was the final interview, where both technical and HR aspects were covered. Since I was in Cluster 2, the emphasis was on Python, SQL, and cloud computing. Overall, the process was systematic and tested both technical knowledge and communication skills.
