Probability Questions (General)
viaGlassdoor
Q: General probability brain-teaser/interview questions (e.g., dice, coins, conditional probability scenarios). A: Zomato interviewers ask standard probability puzzles to test structured reasoning under ambiguity - e.g., classic problems like expected number of coin flips to get two heads in a row, probability a specific card appears before another in a shuffled deck, or conditional-probability scenarios (Monty Hall-style). The focus, per candidate feedback, is less on arriving at the exact final number and more on demonstrating clear step-by-step reasoning, correctly setting up sample spaces/conditional events, and handling follow-up variations the interviewer poses on the fly.
