I applied online. I interviewed at Cognizant (Bengaluru) in Aug 2021
Interview
I underwent a two-part interview process consisting of an initial online MCQ test followed by a technical interview. The MCQ test assessed fundamental knowledge, while the technical interview delved deeper into my skills, focusing on problem-solving abilities relevant to the role.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Core related questions, Basic java questions, two coding questions. One for printing the prime numbers with a range 1 to n and second one is converting lower case letters to upper case
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.

Interview process was straight forward. Two technical Interview L1 and L2 rounds happened. L1 was easy with basic java questions. But L2 was the actual interview. They were asking every concept very deeply.
