I applied through university. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Cognizant (Coimbatore) in Aug 2012
Interview
That was during my final year at PSG TECH. We got the information about CTS hiring us in a weeks time. There was a feel of excitement as well as nervousness in us. There was aptitude round which was the first round consisting of logical reasoning as well as mathematical problems.
The results were released after three days and to a pleasant surprise I cracked it!!!
All those who were selected were sent to the next round that is direct interview with the employee of COGNIZANT. In that round I was asked about the technical questions and to write about certain coding in C,C++. Then I was asked even about my involvement in Inter college activities and extra curricular activities.
Then after ten days the results were out and I was selected to be one among the members of COGNIZANT family!!!!
Then I had a phone interview for the intern ship selection were I was asked certain technical questions and a detailed explanation about my Project done in college.
Based on that I was granted an intern for six months for my final year project
followed by a job as a PROGRAMMER ANALYST.
