ZoomInfo Software Developer interview questions

Review: A Highly Inconsistent Process ----- One of the most inconsistent interview processes to date. I had to constantly reach out to the recruiter to get updates - it felt like they weren't even doing their job. On top of that, the coding interview didn't seem like it was properly reviewed by an interview panel (and if so that speaks on how disconnected their interview panel is). The guy showed up with a custom problem which involved a very company specific domain that the interviewer recently worked on where the description provided was literally several of paragraphs long with an vague diagram, and the code provided was at least 200-300 lines long... Like are we trying to build a full-blown feature in 45 mins? 🙄 ----- The second system design interview reiterated the same theme of extremely long problem statements. Hiring manager seemed well-spoken but also one of those people who played the game and moved up the corporate ladder too fast 🤷‍♀️. Feedback was contradictory, was told that I had the experience for the level they were looking for but at the same time was lacking skills they were looking for. If this interview process is any reflection of their company, then it's quite clear why their stock isn't performing.

I was asked a leet code question about string manipulation a $ means a number + means a letter and * means that the next 3 letter should be identical. - that was the home task
