I have completed the interview process with cognizant on 13th april 2019 with final round of discussion with hr.
During final round of discussion it is being informed that i will get offer within 2 weeks.
Now almost 3 weeks completed from the date of the interview and still i have not got the the offer from cognizant.

Can you please confirm when can i receive offer letter from cognizant as my last working day is 10th may 2019 and wanted to join cognizant asap.
Cognizant is a big organisation, they hire n number of employees daily, so it is not easy for them to release the offer letter immediately. I takes time. According to my experience it will take 2-3 months roughly. Not more than that.

            I attended an interview of cognizant held in Bhubaneshwar on 16th feb 2019 for Datastage developer, i got selected and the hr informed me that i will be getting the offer letter in 15-20 days time.

            After a week i received a mail from talent acquisition for uploading my photo and some basic details in a portal.The same was submitted successfully. after that same mail i received 2 times on 29th march from talent acquisition for uploading my photo and some basic details in a portal. Again, i filled up details.
            I tried to reach cognizant hr team but there is no response from them.

            And without getting offer letter, i got a mail from cognizant on 4th April 2019

            "Dear Sweety Kumari,

            Congratulations !!!

            We from Cognizant would like to make your onboarding experience a smooth and hassle free one.

            This is Benedict Alexander from Cognizant TAG team. I will be your single POC for all your queries regarding BGV, pre joining formalities completion.

            Then, I replied, without getting an offer letter, this is not possible to send DOJ at cognizant and LWD at current organization. I didn't get any reply from his side.

            I am not sure if normally they would take more than two months to release the offer letter.

            Please help me to get my offer letter.

            Regards- Sweety Kumari

                I have attended the interview on feb 9th 2019 for datapower skills in bangalore and have cleared all the rounds including hr discussion. Initially i have got couple of emails where asking me to provide me the details and upload the live picture. Later there is no updates and even the hr is not responding properly.
                Contact person will not even pick the call and it is very difficult to follow up with the team

                Thanks,

There were no proper reply or call or email too. Hr name soniya (Alwarpet branch) she was very unprofessional and not even had courtesy to call and say whether we can proceed next round or not. As a affected candidate i know how much money it takes to come to your office and spend my time to get a job and in the end we treated like this. I hope the company takes a necessary action

                            This is regarding the status of my offer letter from recruitment drive of cognizant held in bhubaneswar on february 16, 2019.

                            I have cleared the face to face interview of cognizant for technology teradata which was conducted on the above said date. I was also contacted from the recruitment team to fill the candidate information sheet multiple times, which i have completed.

                            I have again filled and submitted the candidate information sheet which was sent to me on 9th april, 2019.
                            I haven't received any further communication or offer letter.

                            I have appeared the cognizant drive for two consecutive years 2018 and 2019.
                            I cleared the interviews but never got the offer letter.
                            I don't understand if the company doesn't have openings why does it conduct recruitment drive every year.

                              We appeared in an interview of cognizant slpp process on 27th february, 2019. Who got selected in that process got a mail from cognizant that we will get to hear from them in about 3-4 weeks but it has been 1 month 10 days but i have got no mail. And no one in our batch who got selected got a mail. We want to know how much time it will take to release the joining letter. We are worried. We are almost 100 candidates and no one got any further mail.
