Interview
Basic rounds like aptitude, communication and logical reasoning. Second round was technical interview.They tested me on fundamentals and asked me to solve 5-7 c problems based on pointers. I was asked about joins, triggers, and sql queries based concept.. And they asked me about my projects. If you are comfortable with java, the questions will be based on java.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Technical questions were mostly based on c and sql
I applied online. I interviewed at Cognizant (Chennai) in Jun 2026
Interview
only one round of technical interview for senior position, and hr execution was not proper, they didn;t connect when needed and no proper negotiation of salary either since shortlisting for interview
The interview was primarily technical, concentrating on C#, .NET, SQL, and API concepts. Questions tested understanding of core principles and practical application. The process was straightforward, professional, and focused on technical depth.
I applied online and got a calll back, had 4 rounds in total. first was a behavioral phone call just casual talks about your skills and when can you start working and general questions, then two coding rounds in hackerrank - was asked to code in java although the job was for python and finally HR.
