I applied through other source. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Cognizant (Hyderābād) in Oct 2018
Interview
I applied through AMCAT. There were approximately 400 candidates. In order to eliminate, they conducted a GD where out of twenty students only 2-4 were selected. After this tough elimination, there was technical interview. I have consistently good performance in my academics and being graduated in ECE, they didn't asked much about programming. Though there were lot of questions from my project and internship. I would suggest to be honest and calm during interview. The selected one went for voice assessment test wherein our pronounciation and sentence structures were check, out of 60-90 students selected, it came down to only 10. Then came the HR round, where people who were willing to relocate were asked to sign a document. All 10 were selected.

1st Round was the Communication Round, which was pretty easy.
The second Round was the Aptitude Round. I did pretty well, so I got to move on to the interview round.
So, for the GenC Role, they would mainly ask about Cloud and Network and things that you have mentioned in your resume.
