I got offer letter from [protected]@cognizant.com. I was interviewed by the hr manager mr. Nataraj.

Find the attachment of the employer's id proof. He asked me to pay 20k for the joining formalities. I also paid that. But after that i didn't receive mail or call from him.

Kindly verify it and do the needful.

My offer letter reference number is 9585885

                    try another job, even it may be delayed to more than 6 months or beyond or they may not respond even. no one in cts think about you and others, simply to pause on boarding they are telling some reason,

                    Almost from one month back people telling portal down, how can you and other believe this in MNC top companies ?

                              It's been more than 10 months now since i received my offer letter but till now no updates on my doj and they are not providing any updates regarding when they are going to issue the doj
                              It's really frustrating to be idle like i'm after even getting a job.
                              Their management is the worst and you can't even contact the hr, useless everything there is useless.

                                Cognizant — offer letter not released even after 2 months of interview

                                Nkchatbot on apr 23, 2020mark as resolved

                                I had attended the interview for 'testing profile' at cognizant, manyata embassy business park, bangalore on february 27th 2020 and was able to successfully complete the interview. Hr had informed that i would receive my offer letter in a week or 10 days. But after some days i received an email 're: cognizant interview status –hold ‘

                                That email had asked me to respond after 30 days with the interview details, once after 30 when even i replied to that email with all the details. I dint hear back anything from the recruitment team.

                                Please do let know the status of application asap since it's almost 2 months completed the interview process.
