I applied through college or university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Cognizant in Jun 2008
Interview
The interview was a good one. It touched all the required parts which would have been required for their opening. The interview was quite tough as a fresher. and the aptitude test was also a good one.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Why do you think you would fit into our organization and what makes you feel you are the best choice for this position?
The interview was primarily technical, concentrating on C#, .NET, SQL, and API concepts. Questions tested understanding of core principles and practical application. The process was straightforward, professional, and focused on technical depth.
I applied online and got a calll back, had 4 rounds in total. first was a behavioral phone call just casual talks about your skills and when can you start working and general questions, then two coding rounds in hackerrank - was asked to code in java although the job was for python and finally HR.
