TR3:
1.) some graph and told me to print all nodes,nearest node,farthest node,adding
new node and new path, using DS or DBMS or any other methods.
2.) Banking system(5 tms)
3.) design train reservation system 2
In third round there was a heavy program which is to be created. It was a railway
reservation program to be created in 3 hours only, We have to book , view and
cancel a railway ticket. There are five station A, B, C, D, E. And there are five
seats. Consider a person in seat 1 goes from A, stops at C, then the seat 1 from C
to E is empty. Thus next person trying to get in station C must be seated in seat 1
not in any other seat. Thus establishing maximum seating between stations. A
random PNR number must be generated which is used to view and cancel tickets.
Name, sex, age should be asked from the person. And there were some other
little constrains too( sorry I forgot). You have to show atleast booking to get
cleared.
4.) Taxi Booking and Allotment 5
3rd: Advanced Coding Round: 3Hrs To design a taxi booking program 5
taxis(program should work for n number of taxis), 5 stations(A,B,C,D,E), initially
all taxis at A. All stations are on a straight line. Distance b/w adjacent stations is
15 km. It takes 15 minutes to travel between two adjacent stations .Fare: 50/- for
1st 5 km, and then 10/- per km. A customer should book using his customer ID
and taxi nearest to his place is allotted to that customer. If two taxis are at same
distance from customer, then taxi which earned less that day will be allotted.
Write a function for booking. Write a function for listing history of a taxi(cus id,
from, to, fare, distacnde, start time, end time, etc.) I managed to do maximum
possible. There were small changes to be made which I explained to the
company guys.
5.) They asked me 4 questions in the return round one is where u have to write a code to find
the number of grand children A table with 2 colums are given first column consist the nsme of
the sons of second column in corresponfing rows the names may be repeated if a name is
given from second column the number of grand children he has must be displayed
6.) implement a Student Allotment System. Student details are given, branches in 2
different quota in 2 diff colleges is given. Sort the student details according to
marks. Print option to 1. Continue with allotment 2. View allotment by college 3.
View allotment by department. Each student should be presented with options to
indicate the branches he can apply (based on marks and seats available in his
quota) and get his selection.
7.) Round 3: Advanced programming question (Day 2 -3 hrs)(Day 3 - 3 hrs) There
were 6 tasks. Only completing a task another will be given. First 5 tasks consisted
of processing a 3*3 matrix.,and 6th task was to apply all the 5 tasks for a n*n
matrix. Those who completed 5 tasks cleared the round.
8.) Round 3 (180 mins): Extreme Programming Round - Was asked to design a
dictionary consisting of NOUNS, SYNONYMS, GLOSARY & RELATIONS. given
sample pattern was as follows: Input File: noun syn1 syn2
syn3,glosary1;glosary2;glosary3 Relation File: noun1:noun2 Ex: animal
beast,wild;a living organism mammal,a walking animal cat wild_cats,flexible
animals;from family of cats tiger,a type of cat;golden black dots on it object,non
living things furniture,something used to decorate the needs of households
table,a smoth surfaced four legs object Relationship: mammal:animal cat:animal
tiger:cat furniture:object table:furniture Part 1: Ask for an input from user
accepting noun, synonyms, glosaries and relations. Ex: Noun: reptiles Synonyms:
reptilea_family Glosaries: the crawling animals Part 2: Search a noun from the
dictionary. Ex: Input: cat Output: Noun: cat Synonyms: wild_cats Glosaries:
flexible animals;from family of cats Part 3: Odd man out Input: tiger, lion, table,
puma Output: table
8.) The question is like u hav to design a dictionary which contains words,
synonyms it's glossary. tasks to be done: 1) U hav to add the words 2) u hav
to show d words 3) if some words r given ur prgm has to tell which one is odd.
ex: table, chair, fish, car answer: fish. since tat's is d odd. for d last task u l be
having a seprate file which tells d relationship of words. based on tat u can do
tat. this has to be done with a B+ tree.
9.) Example how lift works etc 4th was technical interview , basic c , os questions were
asked last round was
10.)
:Asked to develop a game were color balls come into the basket and they
burst if 3 same same colors are nearby. Round V: Technical Interview. Focused
much on resume. Round VI: HR interview. Manly to check whether the student
is interested in the company or not.

I applied through college or university. The process took 2 days. I interviewed
at Zoho(Madurai) in June 2015.
Interview
I attended the interview through my college placement.First round was aptitude.
Consisting of 10 general aptitude questions and 15 C-apt. 100 were selected from 500
plus students who attended the round. The next round was short coding. It consisted of
6 questions. They check how we proceed with the problem. Our way of thinking is more
important to them than arriving at the exact answer. This is applicable for both coding
and aptitude. People who had completed 2 1/2 questions were selected while those who
had completed even 4 questions were not. So the approach matters most. Next rounds
were Long coding followed by tech and hr interviews. I did not clear short coding. So I
don't know much about the rest.Show Less

The Campus drive was a three day process First round : MCQ(1 mark) which tested ones
ability in basic C programming, java and c++ and then 2 marks questions Second round
: people who got shortlisted were called upon the next day for Live Coding. All of us
were given systems to works on and were asked to code only in C or C++ not Java(This
was really frustrating because I was strong in Java). We were given problem statements
and we had to show the output to the person in-charge. If the interviewer was happy
with our solution he would give a new set of questions. I don't remember the exact
count, but we were given more than 8 questions in this round. How quickly we solved
the questions mattered, as they noted down the time we took to solve a given
problem.The difficulty of this round was average. Third round : This was also a live
coding round but only tougher. Fourth round : face to face technical interview. I was
asked OS related questions like Semaphore and was asked to write a Java code for the
same. Then the interviewer asked questions from Java Collections. He asked me to
explain about my projects. And finally he asked me If there's anything else I wanted to
tell him. I told him about an Android application I made, It was at this point he was
interested, he asked me to show the app. I opened the app in my mobile and gave it to
him. He was impressed. The app was a placement preparation app similar to the online
site indiabix. After that I asked him about the company and how it made revenue and

ZOHO 20:
complete it as i am an electrical student and I'm not good to do it. It was a railway
reservation program to be created in 3 hours only, which was impossible for me. There
are lot of constrains in it.Now let us get into program. We have to book , view and
cancel a railway ticket. There are five station A, B, C, D, E. And there are five seats.
Consider a person in seat 1 goes from A, stops at C, then the seat 1 from C to E is
empty. Thus next person trying to get in station C must be seated in seat 1 not in any
other seat. Thus establishing maximum seating between stations. A random PNR
number must be generated which is used to view and cancel tickets. Name, sex, age
should be asked from the person. And there were some other little constrains too( sorry
I forgot). You have to show atleast booking to get cleared. As I was not aware of this
kind of program, I cannot get through. A guy from some other college get through as he
practiced this program. They will not change the program for at least 2 years. So, don't
worry. As I did not cleared the test I do not know about next two rounds..
