    Hi,

    I appeared for bigdata/spark interview on 13th july at pune sb road location.
    Having cleared all the rounds, hr said i should receive offer letter in a week. I was also asked to contact poc in case i dont receive offer letter in time.
    Now, more than 10 days have passed and i have had no communication from cognizant whatsoever. Instead i have been receiving calls for upcoming drives. Its all very confusing.

    There is no mention of poc full name or contact information in interview mail.
    I have mailed recruited twice, but haven't received any response so far.

    If anyone has any hr contact number from that drive, please share.
    My poc was sakshi.
    Did you get any updates on offer letter? I had given an interview for Informatica on same date and same location. I am also waiting for an offer letter.

      Hi team,

      My technical round with cognizant happend on 18th may 2019. Then they scheduled my second round two times but panel was not available. Finally they shared webex details for second round on 29th may but no body joined the webex. From that time, i didn't received any email or call from them. Even they are not responding.
      Now i can't apply again because my profile is already in process.

      I raised this concern earlier also but then resolved the ticket without informing me.

      Regards,
      Dilmeet

          I have attempted the amcat test on 25 may and i got mail for an interview on 27 june but due to pancard i got rejected and they said that they will reschedule the mail again with in 15 days but it has already been 23 days and i got my pancard 2 weeks back. And i have mail cognizant too but they have not responded yet. Do we get reschedule mail from cognizant
          Today I had a communication assessment test of genc. But due to technical issues I couldn't start the test. MSB application was not asking for camera and microphone. Will they reschedule my test or will I get the chance for an interview.

            Hi,
            I attended an interview at cts manyatha tech park bangalore on june 20th 2019 and cleared all the rounds. At the end hr informed me that i will receive my offer letter with in weeks but i haven't received yet. Meanwhile i received an interview status mail from cts talent acquisition, after that i haven't received any updates. I am not sure if normally they would take almost a month to release the offer letter.
            It's been one month... I haven't received offer letter yet...

            Regards,
            Chamdeep

Is their any chances to get offer letter soon. & If yes, then how much time that they will take more?

                          Hi cts,

                          I was promised my hike on june as per the cycle. They informed that there is delay in approval hence its going to be applied from july for sure. Today i hear from director that the hikes will role out in sept that is 3 months ahead without any reason. It is disheartening the way they make us work with the high targets but don't deliver on the promises made. I feel cheated.

Hr called and discussed all details he said he will release offer letter that day itself since there is urgent requirement. But after that no response they are not responding for phone calls and mails nothing. They said resign from present company if you join asap we will thing about some more hike in compensation. I trusted them and resigned but they are not at all responding.

                            I am suggesting all please don't go for this type of fraud companies.

                                        I appeared for oracle bpm interview drive scheduled on 15th july, 2019 at the location technocomplex, salt lake electronic complex, plot gn 34/3, salt lake, kolkata - 700091

                                        On the same date, i cleared all the technical/architect rounds for oracle bpm senior architect role in eas horizontal and had salary/compensation discussion with recruiting hr person named shrini. My interview details are furnished below -

                                        Date of interview and location - 15th june, 2019 at technocomplex, salt lake electronic complex, plot gn 34/3, salt lake, kolkata - 700091
                                        Primary skill - oracle bpm, soa, oracle cloud
                                        Years of experience - 12 years
                                        Role selected for - architect oracle bpm and soa, oracle cloud
                                        Hr interview coordinator - ruma maity (746849)
                                        No of interview rounds - 1 technical, 1 architect review and managerial capabilities, 1 hr for salary package discussion.

                                        I was assured to get offer letter released for me by 5 to 8 days. Since then it is now almost 3+ weeks past without any response. Got only 2 initial mails for cis (Candidate information sheet) fill up which i already did on 18th june, 2019

                                        Through various channels i am trying to follow-up on this asking for simple status of mine - but no response from any/no revert back on any communication. Got a ticket ticketid:eeq[protected] from tag compliance for this only.

                                        My question is - is it too much to ask for status on offer process and the team does not have professionalism to at least respond.
                                        Hi Dipankar

                                        Did you get any update from Cognizant yet? I've attended the same interview same location same date different profile but haven't heard from them yet. Only 3 same mails with subject line "Live Interview Session", filled online CIS. That's it.
