Entrevista
Behavioral phone screen followed by another round of technical phone interviews lasting about two hours with various engineers at Zynga. There were no actual coding questions. Most of the questions tested general CS knowledge, and there were a few questions that asked how you would handle a specific problem. If you payed attention in your core CS classes and can describe your projects inside-out with confidence, you're golden.

Entrevista
The interview process was very well structured. I had a call with a university recruiter who asked me basic questions about my resume and enquired about my interest in games. A couple of days later, someone from the HR got in touch with me and scheduled my first interview. The first interviewer was very nice. He asked me a couple of technical questions and was satisfied with my answers. He also poked me a bit to improve on the time complexities of the algorithms I suggested to solve the problems. He was able to give me good feedback at the end of the interview. I was contacted by HR a couple of days later to schedule my next round of interviews. I had two interviews scheduled one after the other. Both the interviewers were very nice and asked me some challenging and some tough questions. Both seemed excited about their job and were able to answer my questions about the company and the work culture with ease
