Interview-HR Interview
Hi Friends,
I am Dips. I am From B.P.Poddar Institute Of Management & Technology. Cognizant came in our College in On Campuss on 13th Jan,2011.
They First presented the ppt where they show us why we have to join in this company and how it became the fastest growing company. Listen very carefully because it will help you while filling the form or in interview.
Aftre ppt there was a general apptitute test. It contains two part:
1) Nonverbal:30 marks in 30 mintues
2) Verbal:25 marks in 25 mintues.
Nonverbal part: This part is moderate. It contains questions on different parts.
1) Coding-decoding (5)-very easy
2) Pictures (6)-very easy
3) Data Sufficiency- (5)-little bit tricky
4) Data Interpretation-(5)-pie chart for this you have to practice from R.S. Aggarwal Quantitative part
5) Logic(5)
All X is Y this type of question easy.
6) Arithmetic reasoning easy(4)
Verbal Part: This part is really tough.
1) Two big unseen passage and you have to answer 5 questions from each passage.
My advice is not to study the entire passage at once as it takes huge time and practice previous years Cognizant questions as we get a common passage
2) Find out incorrect ones
3) Find out correct ones
4) Which one grammatically most correct.

Then he shake hand with me and told me to seat.
Sir: So tell me about yourself, your family, your schooling, your hobbies, your strength, your project
Me: I told everything
Sir: What is your weakness?
Me: My weakness is that I never leave any work undone.
Sir: Is it really a weakness?
Me: Sometimes it becomes weakness. For an example that if I am watching movies and tomorrow is my exam, still I can not leave the movie until it ends and inspite of my mom’s screaming.
