I applied online. I interviewed at Cognizant (Pune) in Nov 2019
Interview
It was most horrible experience I have had. A whole crowd of 60 or more people standing in front of gate of building, sweating and waiting for their turns to get in. Took more than an hour to just enter the building.
After that when I reached the floor, I had to further wait for 2 hours for my Interview. Then I am told that panelist is not present. They call a guy who is traveling and ask him to interview me. In that low network call I was asked two questions and later he talks to HR and I am told that I am not shortlisted!
A government job would have had a better management and panel for an interview. It was not disappointing, it was pathetic.
