      Application

      I applied through university. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Cognizant (Chennai) in Sept 2024

      Interview

      There was a coding round and I selected Python as my preferred coding language but on the assessment day, they switched mine to Java. They did this to most of my other classmates too. This seemed unfair and illogical.
