Application
I applied online. I interviewed at Cognizant (Mountain View, CA)
Interview
After applying to this role two times in the span of a couple months, I had a disappointing experience with both interactions. The first time, I received an email from their talent acquisition group to schedule an HR screening call. I replied promptly and confirmed an appointment with their recruiter, but was ghosted and did not receive any follow-up. Moving on, I reapplied to this position within a couple months and received a HR screening call from a different recruiter. After a brief conversation, I was informed that a follow-up email would be sent within 1-2 weeks containing the next steps in the hiring process. I never received any response even after following up.
