Interview
I got placed into Cognizant through campus recruitment. The whole process was easy going. Had an aptitude round and the personal interview round. Had to interviewers question me. They had something like the good cop bad cop routine. One was asking more of non technical questions with a smile on his face , the other had a very serious look on his face asking all technical questions to me and both not changing their expressions no matter how good or bad i answered their questions.

I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Cognizant (Raipur, Chhattisgarh) in Dec 2010
Interview
mine was a campus interview. Most questions were on my B.Tech project. There were some questions too on data structures and programming especially on sorting. HR questions were typical. My interviewer was very friendly and we were chatting like friends by the end of the interview. Overall a nice experience.

Question 1
My interviewer asked me a question on how to market a bottle, defining all the strategies, how my product would stand out among the competitors, etc. This was a bit unexpected as we were mentally prepared for a full-fledged technical interview
