Ask for a referral to Zomato

A referral only means something if the person giving it can actually speak to your work. I will refer you where I know someone on the inside and your profile genuinely fits the role, and I will tell you plainly when I cannot. Either way you get an answer, and a straight one.

  • I read every request. A reply takes a few days, sometimes longer.
  • I will not refer someone for a role their profile does not fit. It wastes your time and costs me the contact.
  • Where I cannot refer you, I will say why, and point you at the way in that does work.
  • Nothing you send here is shared with anyone without you agreeing to it first.

If you found the opening, paste it. It tells me which team you mean.

A Drive, Dropbox or personal-site link is fine. Make sure it opens without a request for access, or I cannot read it.

At least a short paragraph. This is what I would be putting my name behind, so specifics beat adjectives.

Comma separated, up to six. Things you would be happy to be tested on.

How they hire

Zomato’s parent company is now called Eternal, and campus drives have run jointly with Blinkit. These accounts are mostly campus hiring; one referred candidate also met the CTO in a final round.

  1. 1

    Online assessment

    Unverified +1
    Online testRemote

    For campus hiring, a HackerRank test of CS multiple choice questions and coding problems. One 2024 account describes 90 minutes with 20 MCQs and three coding questions.

  2. 2

    Technical interview on DSA and projects

    Unverified +2
    Technical interview

    Coding problems and a puzzle alongside detailed questions about your internship and projects.

  3. 3

    Second technical interview

    Unverified +1
    Technical interview

    A deeper discussion of your projects and their design, plus databases, operating systems or networks. Candidates describe it as tailored to their background rather than a standard design question.

  4. 4

    HR conversation

    Unverified +1
    Final HR round

    A short chat about goals and why you want to join.

What comes up

Recurring themes from candidate accounts, not a question bank. Nobody is served by leaked question lists, least of all you in the interview.

  • Your own projects in depth

    Unverified +1

    Several accounts describe long discussions of resume projects, including how you would design them to scale.

  • CS fundamentals beyond coding

    Unverified +1

    Operating systems, DBMS, OOP and networking come up alongside data structures and algorithms.

Course
Grokking Data Structures & Algorithms for Coding Interviews

A foundations course that builds eleven core data structures from the ground up (arrays, matrices, stacks, queues, linked lists, trees and BSTs, hash tables, hash sets, heaps, graphs and tries), then covers sorting, searching, greedy and divide and conquer. Every chapter has practice problems, flashcards and an assessment. It suits students and career switchers whose foundations came from tutorials and who find pattern courses move too fast.

Course
Grokking Algorithm Complexity and Big-O

A short text course on algorithm analysis: all five asymptotic notations, time and space complexity, best, worst and average cases, and three methods for recursive complexity including the master theorem. It suits students and self-taught developers who can write working code but freeze when an interviewer asks for the time and space complexity, or who want to understand why one solution is faster than another.

Course
Grokking Tech Salary Negotiations

A practical course on negotiating compensation in tech, from preparing and building a strategy to specific tactics, the full package beyond base salary, handling multiple offers and asking for a raise. It has tailored sections for fresh graduates and experienced engineers. It suits anyone with an offer coming, and anyone who has ever accepted the first number out of discomfort.

Guide
GeeksforGeeks

A very large site of articles on data structures, algorithms and core CS subjects such as operating systems, DBMS, computer networks and OOP, usually with code in several languages, plus practice problems and paid courses. It is handy for revising a university topic or finding a worked example of a specific algorithm. Quality varies because much is community written, so cross-check anything surprising against a textbook or official documentation.

Roadmap
Sefism CS Core Subjects Roadmap

An eight-stage roadmap through the core CS subjects: how a computer runs a program, OOP and design, operating systems, computer networks, database theory and internals, software engineering and theory, finished with a systems project such as a shell, an HTTP server or a tiny database. It suits CS students and self-taught developers filling the same gaps, and favours understanding shown in working code over memorised answers.

Design Gurus Newsletter

A free newsletter of short, focused posts on system design and problem solving, from the team behind the Grokking courses. Recent posts cover company interview processes (such as OpenAI and Anthropic roles), the most asked mobile system design questions and preparation plans, each linking to a fuller article on the blog. It suits engineers who want a steady, low-effort way to keep system design and interview topics fresh between deeper study sessions.

What it pays

Nothing collected for this company yet, and nothing worth guessing at. A made-up range is worse than no range because people negotiate against it.

Add to the Zomato page

This library is only as good as what people who have been through it are willing to share. Most of these companies have no hiring process documented anywhere, and one account of what the rounds actually were is worth more than anything I can research from the outside.

What are you adding?

This decides how the claim is labelled on the page. Only someone representing the company can produce an “official” label, and I check that separately.

Year and month.

Comma separated topics, not the questions themselves.

Round by round is ideal: what each one was, how long, remote or in person, and what it covered.


Credit

Anonymous is the default. If you keep it anonymous, nothing identifying you reaches the page: it is published as a candidate account and your name stays with me. Never send anything covered by an NDA, and never send a take-home or a question paper.

Universities they recruit from

No sourced university links yet. A campus drive, a career fair appearance or an internship partnership is what puts a university here.

How to actually get seen

Be ready to explain every project on your resume and the design choices behind it, since the interviews spend as much time there as on coding.

Want me to refer you here?

Send me the role, your CV and a few honest paragraphs on why you fit it. Where I know someone inside and your profile matches, I will make the introduction. Where I cannot, I will tell you why and point you at the route that does work. You get an answer either way.
