I applied through college or university. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Cognizant (Chennai) in Sep 2019
Interview
There are three rounds, AMCAT based aptitude and coding test followed by Technical and HR interviews. I test very simple. One who is very clear at basics can easily clear. It consists of seven coding questions and 30 aptitude and verbal questions.
The interview focused heavily on my projects, asking about design decisions, challenges, and real-world use cases. I had to explain my thought process clearly. It was a practical and insightful experience that tested genuine understanding.
