I applied online. I interviewed at Zynga (Bengaluru) in Apr 2026
Interview
1 assignment followed by 3 rounds of interview, first round is RCA case, second round is Product design case. Most of the questions are about Zynga's games like Farmville and very detailed interviews
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
If the retention of Famrville game has declined, how would you understand what happened
Very smooth experience. Going through 1 round HR and 1 round hiring manger, and then meeting with the product team and lastly meeting with higher level product director. HR is very responsive and give clear guidance.
I applied online. I interviewed at Zynga (London, England)
Interview
Had 5 interviews with 1-2 people in each interview. Interviewed with 7 people in total (excluding the recruiters screening call). My first interview was with the Senior Executive Producer of the project, later I interviewed with peers and team members of the project. All of the people I interviewed with seemed like nice people and all happy to work for Zynga. Everyone was super kind and passionate and I would have been happy to work with the individuals I interviewed with. The project was interesting and the role as well. Although the people seemed to have a great culture in terms of sharing a passion to make great games and support each other through the process, I was not keen to join the company when I was offered. The role I applied for was expected to work late on all weekdays, due to cross continent collaborations. The workday would be most hectic at 3pm and go on until 8 pm I was told. The hierarchy of the project seemed outdated - very top down. Rather than focusing on building a great quality project, my interviews focused on my ability to track velocity and delivering on deadlines. I would be happy to apply to Zynga at another point in time, perhaps another project, but for this project in particular I would not have fitted well.
