Zoho’s Hiring Process is Completely Biased
Zoho gives priority to Tamil-speaking candidates, and only if there are extra vacancies do they consider people from other states. I cleared all five coding problems, optimized them as requested, and explained my approach clearly. The technical live coding interviewer, Seethu Maria Johnson, even told me that HR would contact me. But instead, I got a rejection email without any explanation.
It feels like Zoho already decides who they want to hire based on regional preference rather than talent. If you're from outside Tamil Nadu, don’t waste your time here—chances are, you won’t even be considered seriously. They show clear partiality in hiring, which is unfair to skilled candidates from other states.
To make things worse, I asked for feedback, but HR (Carmila & Veena C S & Supriya M) simply said "we cannot share the feedback." So, not only is the hiring process biased, but there’s also zero transparency.
Even after Seethu Maria Johnson told me HR would contact me, they just ignored my performance and rejected me without reason.
Final Thought
Zoho might be a good company for Tamil people, but for others, it’s just disappointing and unfair. If you’re from another state, don’t waste your time here—your performance won’t matter, only your region and language will.

A case study in an Optum interview typically revolves around solving a real-world problem related to healthcare, data analysis, technology, or business strategy, given Optum’s focus on healthcare services and technology solutions. Here are some tips on how to approach a case study interview at Optum and a sample example:
Steps to Approach an Optum Case Study:
1. Understand the Problem Statement:
Take time to read the case study carefully and make sure you understand the key issue or question.
Identify the stakeholders involved (patients, healthcare providers, insurance companies, etc.) and the objective (cost reduction, improving patient outcomes, increasing efficiency, etc.).
2. Clarify Assumptions:
If there are any ambiguous elements, ask questions to clarify the problem.
You can also state your assumptions if you're making any, but be clear that these are assumptions.
3. Break Down the Problem:
Identify key data points you would need to analyze.
Break the problem into smaller pieces that can be addressed step-by-step.
4. Analyze:
Use frameworks like SWOT analysis, PESTLE analysis, or Porter’s Five Forces if applicable to the case.
In case of a data-related problem, try to identify key metrics (such as patient satisfaction, cost, quality of care, etc.) and how they can be improved or measured.
For technology-related cases, consider aspects like scalability, security, user experience, and integration with existing systems.
