I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Zynga (Chicago, IL) in Aug 2025
Interview
Screening + 2 Rounds with Hiring Team which is technical. SQL heavy, Python was not that hard, medium leetcode. More focused on reasoning and approach rather than solution, which is pretty good in my opinion. Upfront and straightforward, no time wasted. Let me know I wasn't getting the job after 2nd round. But communicated well.

The process was pretty smooth and had 5 stages, there was a 15 minutes screening call, then a 30 min hiring manager round, then coding round, then case study and final behavioral round.

Third round: Technical interview
Every round is of 30 minutes and technical round is of one hour
Basic SQL and Python question
The interviewer is really nice through the tech interview. She guided me step by step, however the website isn't very smooth to do the live coding. And she also gives hints when I stuck
