      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.

      Kindly write to me on all your queries along with your candidate ID/ Reference number mentioned in your offer letter.

      Also, please let me know the below details.

      1) LWD with Current organization

      2) DOJ at Cognizant

      Note : I will get back to you within 48 hours of your mail .

      Regards, "

      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

                Hello, my syed a candidate who applied for customer support and got selected in all rounds expect documents verfication. But inspite i had all documents i showed up. 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.

                            I have attended the interview on 16th february and got selected. After few weeks i have received a mail from talent to upload the details. After that i didn't receive any updates from hr. Last month they called me and asked to update the details in the candidate form and i have updated. It has been two months and till now i didn’t got any updates from the team.

                              Hi, i attended interview for senior process executive role on april 1st and cleared all rounds scored good in written and after all waiting from 10am-6:30pm they simple said no vacancy, i dont feel good at that time cause if they know that they dont have than why they are wasting our time? And said next time will consider you directly with only one screening and now again today i called them after getting job notification for same position having 10 vacancies in naukri, they said okay will see and we are not sure we have vacancies is that right way to be?

                                  I gave my interview on 2nd of feb 2019, and i cleared all the rounds for sap bw along with the diacussion of hr.

                                  Hr told that i will recieve my offer letter withing a week but since then i am waiting, i tried contacting them over call and even i went to office to check with the hr but she told that somebody from chennai is responsible for the drive and she was just the poc.

                                  Everything was completed and again they told the my offer has been put on hold.
                                  Its kept on hold from last 3 months and i didnot get any update regarding that whenever i try to check with them one simple reply is no opening for version whivh i have experience in, then why my interview was taken and why i was told i cleared everything.

                                  Please if any help can provided it would be great.
                                  I holded on to this because i thought as per cognizant reputation this company wont hold offers and oll as it would be imbarassing for such a high level company but i got stuck, i guess it doesnt matter much for the reputation.

                                  Thanks

                                  Same thing happened with me as well . I had given interview on 2nd Feb from Pune location. for SAP MM. I got selected same day & fill HR form . I had dropped multiple email to HR but as of now no reply .

                                  I do not understand why such big company is playing with employee emotions .even though why they are taking walking if they do not have opening .

                                  I was expecting the offer letter but now I completely lost hope on cognizant
