Help me on getting placed in Cognizant

Hey guys!!

I have my Cognizant on-campus drive coming up in a few weeks or maybe months, and I’m totally confused about where to focus and prepare.

I have my communication round in 2 days, but I honestly have no idea what comes after that. Can anyone explain the rounds that usually happen in the Cognizant hiring process and how I should prepare for them?

Also, if anyone has already attended the drive, please share your tips, preparation strategy, and tricks that helped you crack it in an easier and legal way 😅.

Operational Analyst Program

I’m an undergraduate MIS major and was recently invited to the JPMorgan Chase 2026 Operations Analyst Program Superday next week. My actual Superday will include two 25-minute interviews with a short break in between. Since this is my first major full time job interview, I want to prepare as much as possible and how to increase my odds getting an offer. I would really appreciate any advice or insight on what kind of behavioral and technical questions to expect. Also, how many approximate questions should I expect? Thanks again for any info!

People say my English in chat is “superb”… so why do I struggle so much during calls?

A friend once told me that my English in text messages sounds really good, but when it comes to calls or speaking in real time, I suddenly struggle to communicate properly.

And honestly, they’re right.

When I’m typing, I can organize my thoughts clearly and express myself well. But during calls or conversations, I start stuttering, overthinking my words, and sometimes my mind just goes blank.

It feels frustrating because I know what I want to say, but I can’t deliver it the same way I do through text.

What worries me even more is that I’m planning to apply for a company that I’ve been dreaming of getting into for a long time. I’m scared that I might fail again because in most of my past applications and interviews, I usually got rejected after the interview stage. I honestly feel like my communication skills, and somehwta my overall performance during interviews are what's holding me back.

I really want to improve because I genuinely look forward to getting into this company someday.

Has anyone else experienced this? How did you overcome it and become more confident during interviews and calls? Can anyone give me some advices?

Morgan Stanley Interview Help

I recently applied for a job at Morgan Stanley after the recruiter texted me on LinkedIn. I finished the HR call and 1st round with the teams associates. I have my second round with the VP. Unfortunately there was no mention of what the interview is likely to consist even after asking the recruiter. His best advice was to be prepared for behavioral and technical. Does anyone have any insights to what I could expect? Would appreciate any advice, thanks in advance!!

Prep For Amazon Phone Interview Round (After OA)

Hi everyone,

This round is part of the Amazon recruitment process and it came after the Online Assessment round where you have to solve a small DSA problem and a practical repo work assessment, plus the workstyle questionnaire. Any information and insights would be appreciated.

Thank you.

I was asked core ECE questions for SDE intern role.

I'm a pre final year ECE undergrad, though I have always been more interested in tech and software. Recently, I had an opportunity to interview with an mnc for a software intern role (on-campus) and here is how the interview went. The interviewer started with introduce yourself and right after that asked what my branch is and then started asking questions from core ECE subjects, obviously I wasn't prepared for that and couldn't answer most of them and overall it didn't went well. Also, no technical question and nothing from my resume too has been asked (might be because of my initial fumble).

I wanted to ask that is this a common thing in interviews with mncs? Any suggestions regarding this would be really helpful.
