I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Cognizant (Vellore) in Sep 2011
Interview
Interview process was good, there was written aptitude test at beginning for basic screening, then one to one interview. The interview session was very interactive, as the interviewers were working employees not "recruiters". They had knowledge of technology and business requirements, which made the whole thing very much fun going.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Since the interview happened during my minor project was live, most of the question came from them, the Interviewer asked me to describe the project and the general data structure of it, and he was adding requirements one by one to see how I address them
Smooth interview process as well as it was very interesting with ample feedback at the end. I enjoyed the conversation a lot and coverted the interview and accepted the offer.
