How I got placed in Zoho

How I got placed in Zoho

Hi, Today Im going to share my expereince of how i got placed in Zoho.  At the end of post,  I will share the resources i used for zoho interview. Grab a coffee and enjoy the story.

My College Days

In college days, Zoho has been my Dream company. It is also the highest paying company which visited my college. So from first year itself i know i must get a job in Zoho. Everything I did in college more or less helped me to get to a Job in Zoho. In 2nd Year i joined Java coaching, because my seniors told that Zoho prefers Java (Now i work as Java Developer in Zoho)  In 3rd year i got interest in Android.  So i started developing an Android App to share photos. I did this App with my friend Suriya. Developing a complete Android App was a great learning experience. Finally, We published the App in PlayStore. You can find that here. In 3rd year, I did one more thing which is one of main reason i got this Job. I started this blog.

How blogging helped me?

While starting wisdom overflow, I was also preparing for interview. So I decided to share what i learn, so that it will be useful for the other students. So I shared this idea with my friends. All my friends encouraged this idea. They were very supportive. My friends Suriya and Vignesh joined as a Authors and Karthi joined as Web Administrator. We got a bunch of previously asked Zoho Questions. Everyday we solve the question, add comments and create a post with good explanation. Whenever we create a post, we understand that question better and it improved our programming skills. By teaching other we can improve our knowledge. That is how i got placed in Zoho. Tip:  If you planning to learn something, teach that through blog or youtube.

Resources I used to prepare for Zoho

First Round

In First round, output questions will be asked most of the time.  I studied for first round in geeksforgeeks. Use the links given below. For Aptitude, Study only the important topics.

C Muliple Choice Questions

Java Muliple Choice Questions

Second Round

Second round is programming, as i said earlier i prepared solved the previous year questions. I have created a list of all the previously asked Zoho Question with solution. Use these two sets given below. This is more than enough for Zoho Preparation.  Also check this year Zoho Interview Experience

Third Round

Third round will be OOPS based Question or sometimes programming round. For OOPS based question I found very few resource. You can start practicing on your own. Think of any real life system like Ticket Booking, Food Ordering etc and create a OOPS based solution. You can use Class in Java or Struct in C for this round. First discuss your approach with interviewer and then start coding.

HR Round

For Technical HR Round, be prepared for the questions from your resume. It can be related to project, courses you did or questions from oops, sql, etc. I will create a seperate post on resume preparation. I got questions from project and about this blog.

Tips For Zoho Preparation

  •  First read the question, try to solve it yourself. After solving the question, check the solution provided. Compare that your solution. See where you can improve.
  • Try to come up with as many solutions as possible. This is one thing they mainly look for in coding interview.
  • Write a clean and readable code. This will create a good impression with interviewer.
  • Always code in language which you are comfortable with in the interview.
  • Cover the corner cases. This is very important. In Zoho they don’t check how many questions you solved. Even if you have solved 2 out of 4 , those 2 must have covered all the corner cases like negative input, very large input, incorrect input. etc
  • Create a online profile. Share your learning there. It can be blog, youtube, github anything. This will make you stand out of crowd during interview.
  • During the interview if you don’t understand the question, discuss with interviewer. They will give you some tips.
