      Application

      I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Cognizant (Bengaluru) in Oct 2015

      Interview

      I was interviewed on 31st of October. First (Preliminary Technical) round was taken by two junior associate interview panel on 31st October 2015 for 35 minutes & 2nd (Details Technical) round was taken by manger panel on the same day for around 1 hr 15 minutes. In both the technical rounds I was asked to write down codes in using pen & paper for both core java, Spring MVC & RESTful webservice. Questions were asked from almost all the areas like Core Java, Spring MVC, RESTful Webservice, Struts 2, Spring DI etc. After that I was asked to appear for one more round of technical interview on 4th November. But this time it was a telephonic round for around 20 mins discussion. Here I have been asked some of the basic managerial Questions & some architecture related Questions. After that they communicated me after an week regarding the confirmation of selection & offer provided on 17th November 2015.
