      Interview

      First there was a amcat test which everyone had to give at their own places Then there was Technical interview and HR interview My overall technical interview gone good as I had done my summer internship in renowned companies,So interviewer was very well impressed by me.Then he asked have you given online exam at your residence, my answer was yes then he doesn’t listen to me and asked me to go out I asked what happened sir, he showed me 6 pics which webcam had captured during amcat test In one pic my mom mistakenly came into and second pic there was a hand in that pic,he asked me who is she then I said she is my mom So he aaked me to go out and talk to their heads As I had not done anything wrong i went there was a madam she doesn’t listened to me at all and started insulting me badly I just asked if you people had these pics of me so why you invited me to this interview at greater noida (i live in janakpuri New Delhi) just to insult me So thats these people are in Cognizant So incorporated and unprofessional.
