I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Zendesk in Feb 2018
Interview
The college recruiting manager is very nice. She has scheduled a technical phone interview with a female software engineer. I have a coding challenge under her supervision and she pointed out my method's flaws several times. They are friendly and all stuff I encountered are female.
I applied through university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Zendesk (Pune) in Feb 2026
Interview
It was a very smooth experience, the interviewer touched on various types of technical skills that an intern should be aware of. The interviewer also focused on how the candidate analyse and design a software.
Great interviewer, very easy questions about the basics of Computer Science.
4 steps of interview:
- coding
- technical interview
- behavioural interview - the most common questions
- conversations withe Hiring Manager
Resume screening, 1 behavioral round and 1 technical round. Behavioral a bit weird for internship given that candidates probably don't have much experiences. Technical 1 medium-ish question. Took quite long to get notified by recruiter of result
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Some behavioral questions and a string algorithm question
