I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Cognizant (Hyderābād) in Nov 2019
Interview
3 round process. Online test followed by technical round and then HR round. I appeared 2 times for CTS interview at Hyderabad and both times I succeeded in cracking it. But as usual both times I didn't receive offer letter from them. On first occasion HR didn't respond to my queries at all. 2nd time in hr round I intimated my past experience with CTS to hr. She asked me have faith in her and that all persons are not same. But as it turned out she also stopped responding me after intimating me that my profile has been kept on hold. I still get interview invites every week for CTS. I don't get it is there any system or organisational problem with them. They never release offer to selected candidates but always keep on organising interview. It's waste company per my 2 time back to back bad experience.
Simple questions about java and spring boot.
Only one round no other technical rounds .
One Hr round and salary discussion .
Mainly focus on cor java , spring boot and microservices
2 technical rounds followed by HR round. All rounds will happen virtually. Technical round with some problem solving questions. Also topics related the latest tech stacks, updates and real time challenges faced in past projects. Current project tasks and responsibilities.

Question 1
Performance issue faced and solution I have worked.
Walk-in interview it was and they selected few of the candidates and I was one of them we had 3 rounds of interview and in HR round they finalized offer and they said we will get that in few days but lateron after 2 weeks someone from cognizant called and started saying "you need to give one more client interview if you pass that then only offer will be rolled out". I thought I was the only one who stuck with cognizant in this postion but I heard from other candidates also that they did the same and till now they haven't scheduled client interview not they have given any offers. Very bad experience never try to give interview in cognizant again.
