I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Cognizant (Bengaluru) in Jan 2011
Interview
aptitude, techical interview and hr interview, clearing apti was easy , but technical interview was tricky one.please refresh your basics before going for the technical interview. if you are clearing the technical interview then half the battle is won. after that the hr round was fairly easy. you need to tackle the answers in a diplomatic way. but i think if you are clearing the technical round you will easily clear the HR round as they mostly take the one who has cleared the technical round
Interview questions [1]
Question 1

It was three round interview with written test and 2 easy interviews. One technical and one with HR for compensation discussion. All were conducted on the same day. In order to get selected need to stand out and answer uniquely.
