I applied through college or university. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Cognizant (Pune) in Jan 2014
Interview
The interview process was a campus drive. It was an aptitude test on the first day with logic, english and general questions mixed. It was around 40 questions and had to complete it in 60 minutes time. Time had to be managed as the questions were a bit tricky. And then the two interview rounds : Technical and HR
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Technical : General questions on basic C and C++.
About interests and college final year project and participation in it.
HR : Asked the questions on the things written in the CV (example : I had written a few book names, so asked questions on what do you infer from them , etc.)
Smooth interview process as well as it was very interesting with ample feedback at the end. I enjoyed the conversation a lot and coverted the interview and accepted the offer.
