Cognizant ghosted me a while back. Not sure what for, I had a phone call that went well, did a technical screening, pre-recorded interview. No follow up or screening results. I reached out to the recruiter, no response. Is it typical of them to ghost? Did I just suck super bad? Idk. Thoughts?

I applied to them back in March for a position and never heard anything from them, even an automated rejection email. Two weeks ago they started calling me daily to ask if I was still interested. I essentially told them to kick rocks and that I’ve moved on (now at PwC). Bad recruiters I think.

I had two interviews with cognizant and told by the recruiter that I have got the offer. I haven’t heard anything back from him since than its been almost 2 years. Worst people to deal with

I've never worked for cognizant but have friends that have, and from everything I've heard you dodged a bullet. I wouldn't worry about it too much

WITCH firms essentially try to find a cheaper resource to fill the same position. Once they have the cheaper resource, they ghost you (unless said resource drops out at the last moment). Then, these firms reconnect with you and try to convince you to fulfill the vacancy.

Had an interview today, for RN OnCall position. This is an extremely difficult position, but I bring not only a preference to work the hours they need but the experience and credentials to qualify for the upper range of the salary (RN, MSN, CHPN, 5 years hospice experience). I asked for the range and he gave the range then immediately stated that I would qualify for mid range. My goal is to find a similar position to the one I’m working now and add 20-30% to my income, the high range would meet
