Cognizant Technology Solutions Consultant Interview

Posted Jun 8, 2010

No Offer – Interviewed in Feb 2010 – Reviewed Jun 8, 2010

Interview Details – I had a couple of phone interviews with various Project Managers over a two week period.
The questions were purely 'fit' questions i.e. "walk me through your resume", "tell me about a time when..."

The following week arrangements were made for me to interview in the Teaneck office.
I had a back-to-back 1:1 interviews with a few manager and partner level consultants.
These interviews were an equal mix of fit and case interviews. They followed the standard format:
a few minutes for small talk and ice breakers; a fifteen minute conversation about background, accomplishments, and reasons for choosing them; about 15-20 minutes going through a standard consulting case; 5 minutes for questions and wrap-up.

Interview Question – Was presented a case and asked how i'd structure the project.   View Answer

Other Details - I applied through a recruiter and the process took 2 weeks.
