I applied online. I interviewed at The Cigna Group (Bengaluru) in Sept 2025
Interview
I recently attended an interview for the Software Engineer Analyst role at Cigna Healthcare in their Bangalore office. The overall process was quite long and intense.
Getting instructions and contacting HR was a challenge in itself, as communication wasn’t always smooth. The interview process involved 20+ different panels, each with different interviewers. Some panels were liberal and friendly, while others were very tough and highly specific.
The technical rounds went into great depth for every skill listed on the resume, so it’s important to be fully prepared on all points you mention. In addition to technical questions, there were also many behavioral and resume-based discussions—focusing on past projects, problem-solving approaches, teamwork, and adaptability.
Overall, the interview process tested both technical depth and behavioral alignment with the company. While it was exhausting, it also showed that Cigna looks for candidates who are thorough, patient, and well-rounded.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
since I had SQL on my resume, they asked me to write and explain queries in detail, including optimization, window functions, and handling real-world scenarios. Every technical skill mentioned in the resume was tested thoroughly, along with behavioral and project-based questions.
