Cognizant visited our college campus after many years and thus we were guided by our TPOs very carefully with the application process. At first, a list of eligible candidates was published by the college. Then we were to create an account in AMCAT with our mail id. The registration process was to be completed by 4th December 2020. After that, the list of shortlisted candidates was published and an online exam was conducted on the AMCAT platform between 18th October to 19th October.

Round 1(Online Assessment MCQ test): The pattern was similar to that of AMCAT. It consisted of different modules:

  • Aptitude(70 mins)
  • Automata fix(20 mins)
  • Narrative(30 mins)

Round 2(Technical Interview): Results for the MCQ test were declared via TPO on 23rd November 2020. Before that students who were eligible for GenC Next had their exams. Our interview was conducted on SmartMeet. It was a 45 minutes interview. Below are the questions I was asked:

  1. How was your day?
  2. Kindly sent your CV.
  3. Introduce yourself.
  4. Since you are good with DBMS so you must be knowing SQL.So explain different joins.
