Zoho Software Engineer interview: Java paper round and longer coding round

The first round was on paper. It covered aptitude and Java output-prediction questions, with an exam-like feel. I sat with the questions in front of me, and the emphasis seemed to be fundamentals rather than tricks.

The second round was a short coding segment with easy problems. It felt like a quick check of core logic, not a deep algorithms session. The third round lasted longer and asked more of me, with higher coding expectations. I also noticed that some practice questions repeated the same themes, which made the evaluation feel consistent instead of random.

Overall, it moved from average to challenging. Having the basics in place mattered before getting to the harder coding work.

Location: Madurai. Overall feedback: positive. Offer status: no offer.
