I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Zynga in Jan 2013
Interview
Zynga contacted me via email about the position in question saying that they found me and my profile on LinkedIn and thought I would be a good candidate. I shot emails back and forth with the recruiter about a good time for a phone interview. After the phone interview I was declined via email.
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
You have two variable lengths of rope with different widths at different sections of the rope and both of them burn at different rates and speeds, they only thing you know about them is that they both burn in exactly 30 minutes. You also have two matches. Just using these two things, how would you measure 45 minutes of time? (Also, you have no way to measure time, i.e. - no wrist watch, etc.)
I completed the hiring questions panel with a current employee and someone from HR and then did a timed coding assesment that lasted an hour and was mostly data structures and algorithms.
I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Zynga (Bengaluru) in Sep 2024
Interview
The interview was difficult and consisted of mixed questions. It had 2 tech rounds and 1 difficult managerial round as well. It took interviews in an online mode on zoom.
