My name is bimal. I recently got selected with CTS on April 27, 2019. I was informed that i would receive my offer in 2-3 weeks if not I can inquire with my poc who was Kolela C. I have dropped so many mails asking for an update but still waiting for response.I only got a link asking me to upload my photo which I did. I just assumed may be i would receive it soon but, again 3 weeks more passed and still no response from them. At least a reply from them would be helpful. This is not the first time it's happening the same happened me last year too and they said i will receive the offer but didn't even get a single reply to my queries.Mail id of the hr is : suresh. [protected]@cognizant.com

It is approximately 2 weeks since I reported this complaint and no response. I don't know what is wrong with this organization. Such a disappointing behavior.

    not received offer letter. interview date 12-05-2019

    I was interviewed on 12th May at Thoraipakkam Cognizant.
    I cleared all the rounds and including hr round. They made me fill a form with all my details on the same day.
    Hr told me that i will get the offer letter in 10 days.
    It has been almost 1 month now and i have not received any reply from them.

    When I checked with HR last week, she said my interview status is select - but I didn't receive any email...

    Hi,

    I attended the interview on May 4th IN CTS, Kandanchavadi for the position of SQL DBA. scheduled by Vignesh Shanmuganandham. I Selected the both technical and managerial round on the same day. Later they have given the form to fill the details and then HR came and asked me to leave for the day. He promised You will get offer letter in One week.

    On May 22nd I received a email from the cognizant tag like Status - under review. Later I e-mailed him, no response from his side.

              Friday i bought vegetables from mahammad bathish shop. I used my food card to swipe for 130 rupees. He swiped for 2 times but error message came. So i gave my other card to pay that amount. But i did not get 260 rupees till now. It has to credit to my account. I also checked with shop seller he also did not get money. Kindly check and credit my 260 rupees.

                          bgv status

                          How can i understand my bgv status in cognizant? Will i get a separate mail for status being positive? Or only those who are in suspect list get mail?

                          Bgv good to go? Or bgv no go please reach out to your recruiter?

                          Do the first one mean, bgv is complete?

                          Cognizant do my bgv before joining or after joining? I am not referring to projects special bgv. I am referring to cognizant bgv....

                          I had interview with cognizant tco at thoraipakkam and cleared 2 technical round and a hr round. Also filled up the candidate information sheet on the same day. Hr said that i can expect offer letter in 10 working days. I was waiting for my offer for all these days and i didn't get anything. And haven't heard anything back from them. Kindly update the selected candidates on the progress.
                          Hi, Did you get any mails from them, like status select or photo upload

                            Dear sir/maam,

                            I haven't solicited any reply in any capacity from cognizant after i was told by you that i'd hear an update within 3 weeks. It has been ~4 months now since i've first written to you. Not to forget it's been around 5 months now since i'd been selected in the pat interview. Kindly understand the distress caused to me during this whole period and the helplessness of not even being able to solicit a relevant reply from the concerned department.

                            Being an enthusiastic aspirant and willing to join your esteemed organisation, i've been waiting anxiously. I've gone so far as to contacting via cognizant boardcalls (Both telephone and email), [protected]@cognizant.com, your onboarding team, [protected]@cognizant.com, [protected]@cognizant.com, exithelpdesk inida etc. But to no avail. Ticketid:eeqm[protected] was generated upon writing an email to [protected]@cognizant.com and was promised a resolution within 3 business days, but no action took place. Any further information regarding when i can expect the formal offer letter or any helpful point of contact (Mail or phone no.) etc. From your end would be highly appreciated. Waiting for your timely response. (Pfa the relevant screenshots).

                            Regards,

Same day i filled one form after clearing 1st round of interview afterward hr asked me to leave for the day as i have cleared my 1st round of interview and the 2nd round would be taken by their client i and they will inform me for that, i waited for around 2.5 months till date (23rd may 2019), in the mean time i keep on following with the hr team about the update they asked me to wait for another round of interview with client only one round is pending after this you need to have hr discussion and then we will release your offer. Today again i called to hr and i asked for the status they told me you got rejected without any reason or without taking interview, guys please don't go for any interview conducted by cognizat the management is very irresponsible they will simply call you for interview to showcase something its completely wastage of time, same issue has reported by many of my colleagues don't believe them blindly and do not hope anything after clearing the round also, very worst experience.

                                  I completed the interview process on apr 27, 2019 in pune. I got selected for the position and hr told me that i should receive the offer letter within 3 weeks. I did not receive any communication in 3 weeks. I kept following up an now they are saying that this position is on hold.

                                  This is very unprofessional. First they offered me a position and did not communicate anything about this hold. When i followed up number of times on different email ids, they just sent me a one liner saying that the "position is on hold".

                                  Position: data engineer. They offered me sr. Associate

                                  Any help regarding this is appreciated.
