I joined Cognizant in November 2025 and got assigned to a billable project, on the very same day, which is new project to cognizant with a commitment of 5 years. But now, after almost completing onboarding (and it’s been almost 2 months since I joined), they are saying there will be client interviews. Why are they conducting client interviews now, after so much time has already passed?
Please suggest.Cognizant

Hey i also got this client,
Can u give me some input how's the work culture and how did the client interview went ?

7 months as a Cognizant Trainee. Zero commercial experience.

I didn't wait. I built "Hunger Relief" solo—a Spring Boot & Angular app with JWT auth—to prepare for a promised Java backend project mapping.

The mapping never happened.

I have the skills and the code to prove it, but I'm still sitting on the bench. I’m done simulating work. I want to build for real.

MAY BE SAME LIKE YOU.

Hello!
I was wondering what kind of contractual or other barriers I might face if I apply for one of the big 4 while working on a project with them in my current company.
I am not too involved in the project but I was in a few meetings and went on a field trip with them as well.
The position that I am applying for is in a different team and city.
Will this considered “poaching” if the consulting firm hires me? Would they need to talk to my current employer?
