At Cognizant, a deep commitment to diversity fuels innovation and creativity, essential components in delivering exceptional value to our clients. We believe that true diversity extends beyond mere representation; it’s about enabling every individual to reach their maximum potential. This philosophy now extends outside our immediate workplace to encompass talented professionals seeking to relaunch their careers after a hiatus for personal pursuits.
We proudly introduced the Cognizant Career Restart Program on International Women’s Day. This unique, paid 12-week initiative is specifically designed for experienced technology professionals aiming to reignite their careers following a break. The inaugural cohort includes twelve women embarking on Engineering Management roles within our Digital Engineering division.
This program prioritizes creating a nurturing environment for returning professionals, offering access to comprehensive training, skill enhancement, mentorship, and a wealth of resources. Participants will engage with cutting-edge technologies throughout the program and will be strongly considered for full-time positions at Cognizant upon completion.
Taking a career break can be a period of significant personal development, often resulting in more resilient professionals with a refreshed sense of purpose. The Cognizant Career Restart Program represents an innovative approach to welcoming diverse talent, regardless of their recent professional history. We are excited to welcome many more skilled individuals and the unique insights they will bring to our organization.
