I received an offer latter from cognizant on 23/08/2021, after that they took around 40 days to finilize my joining date at 5/10/2021 . I have completed my all pre joining formalities given on there global onboarding portal but still can't get my onboarding pass to join the company, and neither got any emails about what to do for further processes .
Hi Ranjan, same thing happened to me. I would advise don't wait for them and start looking for some other offers. They didn't give me joining saying my BGV was not cleared though I've submitted all the required documents.
Best of Luck!

        Address: Greenbay WI

        A guy (Premanand Ravi) is a sr manager through CTS working for schneider logistics at Greebay WI location. His wife ( Magdalene Prem Anand ravi) had h4ead and he did all the sneaky things and bought her inside with NO INTERVIEWS and she joined as Associate. Now she is full time with cognizant and a SR Associate in 2years. People sit and work hard to become senior associate for 10 years but frustrating to see all this.

              Hi,

              I had given interview at cognizant on 02/Aug/2021. I had cleared the interview. Got the confirmation from HR. After that on 06/Aug/2021, I had attended the pre hire orientation session too. HR ask me to sent the documents, details etc all I had sent by the eod. After 2 days she had call me saying that my application on hold. Still I did not get an offer letter. HR told me that she can not onboard.

                        A very good evening sir / Madam,
                        I'm a fresher who attended the genc cognizant superset interview, kiruthiga manivel from Easwari Engineering College currently I'm pursuing final year B Trch IT
                        I wasn't able to answer few questions and it is absolutely fine if the recruiter is not selecting me, but i don't think if the recruiter was professional with me, because in the end when i asked for his feedback, he said that your communication skills and conceptual skills won't do anything here this is not a " teaching job or a documentation job" he said the exact words you can check the recorded video. As an engineering student i have the knowledge that what kind of job I have applied for and it is totally inappropriate for a recruiter who is representing the company to be that unprofessional and rude and now I'm hurt I need justice . Please respond.
                        Thank you,
                        Kiruthiga Manivel

                          I am Mamoni Mahapatra. I have given an interview for Functional Testing Engineer for Cognizant, Banglore on 18/00/2021. After 3days on 21/09/2021 I got a mail from HR that I have cleared technical round so I need to submit all my documents ( payslip, previous organization offer letter, increment letter)for document verification & for HR round which I submitted successfully on that day only, but still I didn't received any mail or call from them. I tried to reach them via mail even after that they don't respond. Why they conduct interviews if they don't want to hire employees.
                          Technical round was on 18/09/2021*
                          yes, same thing happened to me and i was attend interview on sep 1 and send documents on 9th sep, they are not responding even in call also, kindly let me know if you sort out this issue .pls

                                        I am a former employee of cognizant.I have requested for payslips and revision Letter from [protected]@cognizant.com.They have sent payslips after long follow-ups.Now only saying that the revision letter can be given by seperate team and they do not know about SLA as well.

                                        This is very bad experience woth cognizant.No prior intimation.Everyone will think after relieving from cognizant we can access external portal.But it is valid only for 3 years.No where it has been mentioned.After long search I found the mail contact even after that they respond very late.
