Experience

The interview consisted of three rounds.

• 2 Technical rounds where they ask 1/2 DSA questions each
• One culture fit round. This generally happens in person where they fly you down but I had it virtual due to some last minute challenges.

About myself

College : Computer Science from Tier 1, 2025 grad
Experience : 4 internships, 3 at startups and one at a MNC

Round 1

2 DSA questions were asked; along with discussion on resume. The interviewers focus on why you did you did, and how was it done. This included the work experience as well as projects.

DSA questions

• A standard array traversal where we are supposed to optimise to O(n) time with no extra space.

• Array of postive integers is given; where elements can repeat. We are also given a target integer. Return the length of minimum subarray such that sum integers in the subarray us greater or eaual to the target

  • What happens the array contains negative numbers. How can we solve it then

Round 2

Was a lot more focused on understanding the the subject. My resume contained operating systems projects and hence was asked on that.

DSA question

• A very standard BST traversal logic. Had a lot of test cases we went through, what if the tree is skewed, negative values, etc.

Round 3

The goal is to understand if you fit with the culture at Zomato. Asked a few questions about why Zomato, my previous work experience and some examples of when I tackled issues, whether my mindset aligns with what they look for

Conclusions

Focus on your resume, the interviewers don't ask questions for the sake of it. They will try to understand, will do their homework before asking you questions. Deep dives are common and expected.

Good luck and all the best!
