                    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,

                        I have attended scheduled interview with cognizant on 15th march 2019 (Friday) time - 9:30 am onwards in weekday, i invested half of the day for devops interview and for traveling too from marathalli to manyata tech park located in nagwara, bangalore. 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.

                                  Hi,

                                  I have attended interview on april 17 at thoraipakkam cts tco. I have cleared all the interview process as well as salary negotiation with hr. Hr said the offer letter will be rolled out in a span of week. I received cognizant interview status - select mail and invitation for live interview with cognizant (I have submitted the cis form as well). But i didn't receive the offer letter.
                                  So i raised an inquiry through cognizant portal regarding the delay in offer. Worst part is the hr replied to the inquiry ticket saying that the position is fulfilled and they may reach me if there is new openings.

                                    I interviewed on 4 th april 2019 and got selected for pv, location pune and it is being told that i will get my offer letter on 22 nd of the april 2019 but till date i did not even get any update from the company not only this i had mailed several times but there was no reply, also i called on office number but guess what no one even recieved the call. My brother also given got selected for developer post and his experience was even worse than mine, and one of my best friend also faced this situation, he has been told to came down to office so that they can provide them the offer letter after got selected and waiting for almost 5 months, he travelled good distance and went there 1 st day they make them wait for around 6 hours and next also for same duration and on 3 rd day he got to hear that there is no vancany now... I mean is it make sence
                                    One more thing i would like to mention that before giving interview for pune location, i was given interview in cts kolkata for pv that time i was working with other campany which i wanted to change due to my personnel reason so went to cognizant i was done with every round and got selected, feeling very excited and happy after that i got a call from hr and she was demanding resignation letter and experience letter for make it possible i quickly resign to that company and provided my all required documents to the hr, now i am left with only hope that i will get my offer letter she told that i will take around a week i thought its ok after 1 week i mailed her but no reply than i called her did'nt anwered i called twice but no answer i kept calling her next day and this time she told the she is not sure about my joining and she hang up on me.
                                    Even after all this i went to give interview in pune just thought of i was only problem with kolkata location but i was wrong.
                                    This is not fair how can a hr demand resignation letter of last company when he or she not sure of joining of that candidate
                                    I lost my last job and did'nt even got the job.
                                    This time also they are repeating the same story i would like to request to take some strict action against this.
                                    If there is no vancany than why they provide walkins.
                                    I beg you pls do somthing about this.
