I applied through university. I interviewed at Cognizant (Hyderābād)
Interview
The Cognizant interview process started with an aptitude test, assessing logical reasoning, quantitative ability, and verbal skills. This was followed by a technical one-on-one interview, where I was asked about SQL, Python, data analysis, and problem-solving scenarios. Finally, there was an HR interview to discuss my background, communication skills, and alignment with the company culture. The process was structured and smooth, providing a great opportunity to showcase both technical and interpersonal skills.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
In the Cognizant technical interview, I was asked a DSA question on arrays and sorting, along with Java concepts like OOP principles and exception handling. They also tested my problem-solving skills by asking me to write a pattern code using loops. The questions were designed to assess both my logical thinking and coding proficiency.
We had many rounds like 3 rounds before interview and interview was quite good. I got selected into cognizant as and programmer analyst trainee. I did not focus much on java, so due to that i Got 4 lpa
