I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Cognizant (Haiderabad) in Dec 2013
Interview
there were two interviews in my college placements
1.Technical Interview and 2.HR interview
Technical interview :
there were two rounds with 2 different interviewers who asked regarding the college projects and few skill based, problem solving questions
HR interview:
This was kind of background check round
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
there were questions related to the projects mentioned in the cv and apart from that few problem solving questions
Virtual interview process, standard behavioral questions and some technical questions. Technical questions were more focused on skills & software I have previously used for data analysis. Everything else was pretty standard and straightforward.
