I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Cognizant (Cochín) in Sep 2011
Interview
CTS had come to my campus for placement during my penultimate semisted. We had a written round first. It was a very basic test comprising Quant and Verbal based questions. About 300 or so qualified out of the 340.
Then we had one HR/TECH interview. Was a breeze , basically they asked the normal questions like TELL ABOUT YOURSELF etc. I was asked the software development cycle. Also , i was asked to write the C code to find the prime number. Just be confident and stay calm. Very easy to crack.
