I applied through college or university. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Cognizant (Chennai) in Sep 2016
Interview
Fairly Easy for me
1st round- Online Amcat Test...consists of quants,verbal and logical...
2nd round- Technical interview just 5 mins for me...qns were mostly from my resume...some of my frnds were subjected to stress like they were asked qns before they gave an answer to the previous one...so do not show any frustration at these situations...take a pause and answer the latest one
3rd round-General HR lasted longer than my technical...casual questions
I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Cognizant (Poona)
Interview
Day 1
1)first round will consist of simple aptitude test..
2 or 3 passage questions , simple grammar , synonyms and antonyms
Day 2
At first there will be submission of your respective copy of the documents and you will be allotted a token no
2) Next will be the technical interview
As I was from a ECE background, mostly questions were on my projects both mini and major. But still I recommend do prepare the concepts of data structures
Also remember guys your communication skills are important here too.
(they'll ask u to wait , then after that they announce the results )
3) finally the HR round
All the best guys .stay confident, dat was my first and that is what I learnt.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
1) simply questions will be based mostly on your resume if something were interesting.
2) as I mentioned of my non-IT background they asked me the reason of me choosing an IT company. ( Guys do prepare on these sort of questions, I wasn't prepared bt I managed it quite well)
3) And do ask them a question when they ask you to.. search over internet you'll find some and then do listen to their answers.
