Hi All, I recently gave interview for a position at Cognizant for Chennai location. I beleive I did good in the technical round and did not get response from HR about next process. It's been 2 weeks and HR is not attending my calls or even replying to my followup mails. I am okay with any response but I am not sure if they are super busy even to acknowledge. Please let me know how can I get a fast response from Cognizant . Thank you in advance.

I’ve experienced the same with Cognizant before. Move on and start looking for other opportunities.

If you are not getting any response then you are rejected. No point of following up. If you selected they will do everything step by step. Move on buddy.

absolutely agree with first two comments, buddy accept the fact you are rejected, otherwise hr would have kept you interested by some means!! All the best for new opportunities,grab them once they come

Mostly HR's doesn't attends the call even when you are selected b/c they are always super busy, and about your scenario if you are selected then within three weeks they will come back to you... BEST OF LUCK.

Cognizant approval process is really slow and this is holiday time so may be delay is because of all this factor.

May be you can send an email in the second week of January as ask for update if you don't hear anything till then.

All the best 👍

I'm a little confused on Danko - does he offer a self-study option for the coursework requirement? On his website it looks like each module has a 4-day virtual class which I wouldn't be able to attend due to working full time. Does this program also include self-study material, and the classes are just supplementary/optional? I was also looking at Dalton for self-study and Danko for test prep. Thoughts?
