What our people say

The Cognizant Summer Internship Program has been an incredibly eye-opening and enriching experience. It has exceeded all my expectations, offering a dynamic blend of challenge and support from day one. By the end of my first week, I was already contributing to live, production-grade AI projects and volunteering at the Codex Hackathon, which gave me hands-on exposure right away. From building chatbots to developing LLM-powered agents, every project has been both challenging and rewarding. The mentorship I've received has transformed how I approach engineering problems, and I'm deeply grateful for the trust placed in me.

Deepro Bhattacharyya

I completed my GenC training with Cognizant in April and am currently working as a Support Analyst. The training helped me build a strong foundation in both technical and professional skills. What I appreciated most was the practical approach to learning, which made it easier to understand how concepts are applied in real work situations. The trainers and subject matter experts were always supportive and encouraged us to ask questions and learn without hesitation. Regular assessments and feedback helped me identify my strengths and improve areas where I needed more practice. It made my transition into a Full-Time Employee (FTE) role much smoother and gave me confidence to start my professional journey.

Srija Bhattacharya

Working at Cognizant has been a transformative learning experience. The collaborative culture here is outstanding; the team consistently encourages interns to take ownership of our tasks and think like full-time engineers. I've grown tremendously in my ability to analyse requirements and build scalable solutions that align with the company's goals.
