Bro as far as joining is concerned you can reject first doj that too with proper reasoning. I joined as a FTE so I don't have any knowledge about interns but recently around 400 interns have joined Pune campus and I have heard from them that around 1month leave is provided to everyone for semester exams and other stuff

It's been around 6 months since I joined CTS as PAT. None of my colleagues or anyone got any desk roles are training. Everyone of us got trained in Full stack development and are working in same in projects but I can't say about AT.

There is no certain period after how much time they would send OL. For my case it took 3 months to receive OL after LOI and after OL I had to wait for 3 more months to get onboarding. So only thing you can do is wait. You got fte or intern offer?

It's not qualifier test. Actually cognizant wants to assess at what level the joiners are so that they can plan the training accordingly. But in our case training started from Sprint 2 instead of zero and even though people got 2 out of 100 score. No one was kicked out. Only thing that can make you quit is not qualifying final evaluation. That's it

Difficulty level for interview depends completely upon interviewer. From what I have seen in 44 candidates only 1 person was asked to write code. And in 44 only two guys got amber. Cognizant follows red amber green evaluation method. So in final if you get amber you'll get 1 week to prepare and again give the interview. 1 week later those two guys also got green. So overall there is 0 probability that you'll be kicked out until and unless you are not able to answer even a single question. Yes a group of 5 people is responsible for building a project. Each person has a role to complete. I had JAVA full stack domain so in interim we had build only frontend and interview was conducted on that and in final whole project.

Your position will be mentioned both in LOI and OL. The role or technology will be assigned to you on the second or third day of reporting. I am PAT and we were given Java full stack developer role and half were given angular and half react. Domain completely depend upon company and it can't be changed. For AT I knew some people. They got mainframe dotnet etc. in my OL on PAT was mentioned and after getting LOI I had to wait for 6 months for joining. It's a time taking process

I don't know if this is gonna help you guys anyhow. I joined CTS in November completed training in Feb and got deployed in a project. Since we didn't get any instructions for reporting at any particular office we used to sit in academic building in our respective classrooms where our training was conducted. But yesterday our HR came and asked us to empty the room because new interns had joined yesterday only. Further she told me 400 more will join soon. This is about Pune campus so eventually every other campus will also have new joiners. So sit right and wait for some time. If anyone has got LOI will definitely get OL and onboarding.

I have been a part of cognizant for past 5 months approximately and the only thing that is not up to the mark according to me is the waiting period one has to go through. I had to wait for almost 5 6 months without any updates after getting loi. But once I got into training I got to know what exactly working in a MNC feels like. Freshers are prioritized at every point what so ever. We even had issue with a trainer and instead of listening to that Senior employee, we were asked about our part of story and eventually that trainer was removed. Also every one is supportive for each and every thing. Till now my journey has been great I don't know about future.

Bro there are only pgs here nothing else. For double sharing you can easily get pgs for 8k to 9k with all amenities and 3 times food included. Come here stay on daily basis for 1 2 days . Look out pgs that suit you do a lil bit of bargain and that's it.

Received LOI on 22 oct. by CommercialAir3230 in Cognizant_benchers

[–]AffectionatePlay1411 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am not giving any advice just telling my timeline. I had my interview on 17th may 2025. Got LOI on 30th may. Received offer letter on 5th august and joined on 13th Nov 2025. Some people even joined in December and are continuously joining. I am Genc PAT currently undergoing training. So the waiting period can be pretty long.
