Cognizant GenC Interview Experience (On-Campus 2023)

Round 1: Online Test

My Cognizant GenC assessment began with an online test conducted on the AMCAT platform, which lasted 100 minutes. This test was structured into three sections:

• Aptitude
• Verbal Ability
• Logical Reasoning

After successfully completing this round, I was shortlisted for the subsequent communication round.

Round 2: Communication Round

The communication round was not an elimination stage but focused on evaluating my reading, listening, and comprehension skills. I found this round to be of easy to moderate difficulty. Upon its completion, I received a shortlist notification for the main interview stage.

Round 3: Technical Interview

My technical interview was scheduled for August 23rd, 2023. During this round, the interviewer asked me a series of questions:

• "Tell me something about yourself."
• "Explain about your projects and internship experience."
• "How will you code and design the Tic-Tac-Toe game?"
• "What is your preferred programming language?"
• "What are your preferred technologies?"

After discussing these technical aspects, the interview transitioned into HR-related questions.

Round 4: HR Interview

The HR interviewer posed the following questions to me:

• "Would you like to work in night shifts?"
• "Would you be willing to join the Chennai Office of Cognizant?"
• "On which domain/technology would you like to work within Cognizant?"
• "What are your general location preferences?"

Once these questions were addressed, my interview process concluded. Overall, I found the interview experience with Cognizant to be very good, and the interviewer was highly cooperative throughout the process.
