I applied through university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Cognizant (Chennai) in Dec 2012
Interview
Simple and straight forward process lasting typically about 45 minutes. Interview also tested my technical knowledge and my motivational skills. Was a casual conversation more than a formal interview. Since it was my first professional interview, I was slightly nervous. But, as the interview progressed I was in my comfort zone.
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
