An introduction to Artificial Intelligence & Analytics (AIA)
AIA is one of the world’s biggest BI practices (20.000+ colleagues) and well-known for its ability to execute and client focus. We have a broad range of experience in different functions like Customer Analytics, Visualization, Big Data, Data Warehouse design, Data modelling and others. Although we are a big organization we value proximity and toward our employees we act in small communities where everybody knows each other.
Personal development

During that time you will also be working on customer cases, directly applying your gained knowledge in practise.

The induction program normally starts in February, June and October. These are also the moments when you will start with Cognizant.
In addition to your day to day project manager and your AIA supervisor, we will assign a mentor from another Cognizant practice to ensure you get all the help and support to start your career on the best footing.
