Experience : 7 years
Round 1 : Coding

  1. Merge k sorted Linked list
  2. Capturing adjacent squares ( variation of bfs with two players)
    Round went well answered both and coded second one
    Round 2 : Fundamentals
    Lots of questions on java , distributed systems , CAP Theorem immutable class, singleton pattern and other general topics
    Got very positive feedback for this round too
    Round 3 : LLD Code Pairing round
    Design bus booking system like RedBus
    Was expected to write demonstrable code at the end ( 90 minutes)
    But Most of the discussion was on entity design , like how to handle multiple stops in same city
    Result : Average
    Round 4 : HR DIscussion
    why zeta ? projects worked? any offers? expected ctc ? notice period ? what do you know about zeta products
    Round 5 : Hiring Manager
    General behavioral questions. conflict resolution , current project , experience in scaling, deployments. Manager is rather on negetive side with every explanation taken with scorn and suspicion and clarifications are asked in a unfriendly tone.
    Overall was never comfortable with the discussion and gave terrible answers to few questions.
    Overall Result is "No Hire". Anyway no intention to work with that manager
