I applied online. I interviewed at Cognizant in Jan 2015
Interview
Interview was somewhat easy. As it was for freshers only basic testing concepts and the simple coding questions was asked. Totally there were only 3 rounds 1. Aptitude 2. Technical Round 3. Personal HR. All the rounds were easy and we can easily clear it. HR panel members were also made me comfortable.
Its not that much difficult. Simple questions they asked. Slef intro, about testing, about programming, a simple technical questions. A simple topic they have given and asked me to speak.That's it
Smooth interview process especially for fresher in a on campus interview......it had 4 rounds, aptitude, communication, technical and HR but not group discussion. We got the results very sooner for each round and all rounds are completed in a single day.
I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Cognizant (Coimbatore) in May 2017
Interview
I have attended Off-campus interview for test trainee role in the month of may 2017. Interview happened for 2 days. On first day only aptitude round was scheduled and we got our results on same day by evening. And on next day there was a JAM round where topics where given by the recruiter and many of them got rejected from this round, and the next was technical where i was asked about testing basics and questions from final year project.. and next was the HR round where it was just of personal interview .. Overall the interview went well..
