I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Zynga
Interview
First interview with HR and a PM at Zynga Poker. Asked about my background, why do I want to work in gaming etc. Then they went into Zynga related questions - which games you like, what would you improve in the game, what metrics would you look at etc. Then they went into data analysis and game mechanics questions.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Which platform monetize best on Zynga poker and why?
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Zynga (San Francisco, CA) in May 2012
Interview
Talk about mixed messages. I was contacted out of the blue by a recruiter about the position. After some email exchange we set up a time to chat and had a really interesting conversation about the position. I was told I was being sent to the next round and we set up a time to talk with a team member on the phone. That time came and went. I emailed the recruiter asking to reschedule. That time came and went. I emailed a third time and got no response from the recruiter. I emailed a fourth time and still no response.
