With headquarters in Teaneck, New Jersey, US and significant operations in Chennai, India, Cognizant’s single-minded passion is to dedicate our global technology and innovation know-how, our industry expertise and worldwide resources to working together with clients to make their businesses stronger. Cognizant is ranked among the top performing and fastest growing companies in the world.

In the United Kingdom Cognizant is growing fast helping clients bring the future of work to life – today. We were built on a global, technology-enabled business model from day one which means that, unlike traditional companies, Cognizant doesn’t struggle with new platforms like mobile, cloud and social media technologies—we define them.

We are looking for graduates with a degree in information technology or business to join our diverse and international colleagues within Business Consulting, Technology or Domain teams who provide services to our enterprise clients across industry sectors.

As one of our graduates when you join Cognizant you will not be spending time in the class room or back office. We think it is important to give you real experience. The Graduate scheme here gives you responsibility and time working on client engagements very early to gain hands-on experience from the very start. You can expect to work with some of the biggest companies in the UK but also internationally and to be mentored by experienced associates who are recognised throughout the industry.

We’ll also help you to continue to develop your skills and knowledge through a number of tailored training courses, developing your capabilities in the areas of business analytics, business intelligence and consulting as well as “soft skill” modules to equip you with the tools and techniques to succeed in challenging international project scenarios.

We are there to support you in your growth and career progression – be it through our mentor and buddy program, or through direct exposure to senior colleagues in the business. In a fast growing and entrepreneurial business like ours results do get noticed and rewarded!

At Cognizant you will have the opportunity to take your career in the direction that you want. Many of you will focus and enhance your expertise in a specific industry sector or solution category and grow your career with the business.

All of our graduate roles will initially be based in the UK however candidates must be willing and eligible to travel across European Union. Our minimum requirements are a 2:1 or better in any degree discipline (although some of our programmes require a postgraduate qualification so please check before you apply).
