Leetcode medium, linked list questions. Chill interview with a casual environment, classic SE interview style. The process was smooth with a application review and then meet for interview, no curveballs if you look at the past experiences, it's very similar.
I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Zynga in Jun 2017
Interview
It started with an initial phone screen with hiring manager. Once I passed that it moved to next stage which was several technical questions that were completed via phone call
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Zynga (San Francisco, CA) in Jan 2018
Interview
One phone screen interview, then three back-to-back phone interviews. All technical except one. The people are nice! Nothing was really out of the park of what a general CS student should know. This position was more so for those with game-dev experience (Unity/C#) so it was different from the general SE interview
