      New Delhi
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied in-person. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Cognizant (New Delhi) in Mar 2018

      Interview

      Got a call from the HR Team and invited for a in-person interview over weekend. On the interview day we had to wait for a long time in the waiting area, interview was scheduled for 10:30Am but my interview with the technical member happened at 4:00 Pm which was less than 5 mins. Please do put good technical members for the interview panel. I am not sure how a guy can evaluate a person in less than 5 mins with tom's of real-time work experience. Most of the questions were sceneries based question and wasn't given enough time to express

      Interview questions [1]

      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Gurgaon, Haryana
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Cognizant (Gurgaon, Haryana) in May 2018

      Interview

      One of the worst interview I have faced in my life. They gave me a time for 10 am.More than 250 people were there and totally mismanaged .No one have idea when their chance will come.I had waited for whole day and at 6:30 my interview was conducted and that too on telephone and just in 10 mins ,he said "you had excellent knowledge in informatica and you are selected".Then at 8pm,they said HR round will be telephonic after 2 days. Its about more than 2 months ,there is no email no telephonic call from the company.I am continuosly following for status of my canditure and sent more than 10 emails but HR didnt reply. They conduct drive on every weekend and selected only those candidates who demands very less. I can say that don't waste your valuable time for such an immature organization,if you feel you are capable enough to get good company.
