Hi i have attended interview in cognizant on nov 2017 and got offer letter on jan 2018 and my doj was april 2018 but my onboarding pass not generated till eod on doj they assured and asked to relived from the company and they will generate and provide the on boarding pass and get onboarded the next day itself but till now they have released 3 offer letters of different date and still not leaving me to get onboarded.5month they took to complete the bgv and after getting relived now they are saying bgv not cleared as one of my company closed 7 years back itself and dnt have any details apart from offer letter resignation letter and salary slips. Not sure wat they are still looking when other companies have accepted it.

They made me to resign from the company and now they are not even leaving me to get on boarded on cognizant also.

Now no one is responding to the calls nor mail.

Request to please help.
I left Cognizant in September 2015 and still I see DOE is not updated for my PF Account and help desk Everytime closing the ticket mentioning will be processed at earliest.

It's almost 3months and I am not able to put a PF Transfer Request. They are not providing escalation matrix as well.

    Pooja. [protected]@cognizant.com)

    I completed my hr round on 13 march, 2018. Hr informed me the salary package and said i will get offer letter in a week time but i have not received offer letter yet. I have already contacted hr recruiter pooja. Ramanagoudar multiple times through email and phone but he is not giving any response and not giving any status of the offer letter.

    Kindly do the needful. It has been 1 & half month that i received offer letter.

    Regards,

    I was interviewed for siebel developer on 13th march in manyata tech park, the hr told me that i'm been selected and i would be getting offer letter in 2-3 weeks via mail.

    It has past 5 weeks already and i do not have a point of contact or any contact from them. I have sent mail to the person who have sent me the invite and also the person who have posted it on naukri for a status update but there is no response.
    Sent CIS form to HR and she mentioned that you will get a cal within a week but it’s been more than 10 days, no updates.

    Is there any approvals needed from hr side to conduct hr discussion round? How many days it will take?

    Previous rounds were cleared.

    Hari Prasad Bobbili's [Complaint's author] reply, May 9, 2018

    Anbu santhiya's reply, May 16, 2018
    Me also attended on 21.04.2018 and selected on same day but I am not receive offer letter from Cognizant. I don't know why they are conducting Interview if there is no need to release Offer letter.

    I think better we Wii try other opportunities, instead of waiting for Cognizant

        My manager aradip barman is constantly harassing me mentally, i’ve been trying for a relocation to gurgaon since 6 months because my fiancé stays there. First they were not ready to give me release approval at any cost for which i was unable to get any allocation in gurgaon. Now that it’s been 2 weeks i’m released and finally got a call from a gurgaon opportunity, he is constantly forcing me to stay back and ruin my personal life and aspirations. Indirectly threatening me to terminate. He and my talent manager both have teamed up to harass me constantly.

                    I had interviewed with cts on 3rd of march 2018 at manyata tech park office, bangalore for full-stack developer. I cleared 2 technical rounds and also the hr around.

                    I got an email on the 8th of march stating that i have been selected and that i will receive the offer and other pre-joining details shortly (Email attached). I had shared the updated cis sheet along with the required documents on 10th of march, as requested in that email, and also uploaded my passport size photo on the portal on the 15th of march 2018.

                    However, it has been around 45 days now, i haven’t heard anything back from cts.

                        I attended an interview at cts hyderabad on 3rd feb 2018 and cleared all the rounds. At the end hr informed me that you will get a call form hr department and then after one week i got a mail from cognizant to provide the all required documents and fill the cis form. After providing all required documents i got one another mail after one week from cts talent acquisition to upload photo in the given link in their portal. After that, i haven't received any updates. I called them many times but no one respond. Also i mailed them. Now i am getting doubt on them weather they are processing my given details or not.
                        Anyone can suggest how and whom to approach next?

                            Hi team,

                            I had attended my interview for sas developer at cts, okkiyampet, thoraipakkam, chennai on 16th dec'17 and i got selected.

                            Later on i received a mail to upload my photo in portal and i uploaded the same and i had been waiting for the offer letter.

                            On feb 17th, i got a call from one of your hr team members and she told me that, i will have one more technical discussion before rollout the offer letter.

                            She scheduled me the time for technical discussion through telephonic. But i did not get any call at the specified time.

                            Later, on feb 20th i got a mail from hr team member (Suresh. [protected]@cognizant.com) stats that "are you still interested to join with us". I responded to that mail on sameday.

                            From there, i have not received any call or mail from cognizant. If anyone has hr number or mail id plz do share.
                            Did you get any response from cts?

                              Yesterday (08-apr-2018), i purchased some items in the reliance fresh supermarket - pallavaram using my prepaid hdfc food plus card. The total amount of purchase is 1500 rs. They shop keeper swiped the full amount in the swiping machine using the food card. I got the successfully transaction message to my mobile number for the amount of 1500 rs and the amount is deducted in the food card balance. But in the swiping machine it shows the current transaction is declined. So they cannot agree the transaction.

                              So i used another my hdfc debit card for that transaction. Could you please check the transaction details of the hdfc food plus card and kindly return the amount 1500 rs again to the hdfc food card plus.

                                I have lost my food card and i have blocked the same immediately. When i tried to reapply it from cognizant's my pay app, i was getting redirected to hdfc bank's web site for cognizant employee. After filling mandatory fields into the form, its giving an error that the employee id is already registered while submitting.
                                Please suggest how should i apply for new food card?
