Process

The interview process consisted of four rounds, separated into two different sessions.

The first two interviews were conducted by software engineers and focused primarily on coding.

The last two interviews were conducted by the director and manager, and asked mainly about behavioral questions or some simple system design.

Questions

A very typical question: given a 2D array of 0s and 1s, find the number of islands of 1s. (Zoom's coding questions are drawn from a very small set of problems).

Given a number, convert it into a binary string and determine the maximum number of consecutive 1s if you are allowed to flip one bit from 0 to 1.

Compute the square root of an integer. (Binary Search)
