Identify and return duplicate strings from an array of strings efficiently.
Use a hash set to track seen strings. Example: ['apple', 'banana', 'apple'] returns ['apple'].

Implementing a sorting algorithm for an array of strings without using built-in sorted functions.

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.

- Q1. Difference between hashmap and hasptable
- Ans.
HashMap and Hashtable are both data structures that store key-value pairs, but they differ in synchronization and performance.
HashMap is not synchronized, making it faster but not thread-safe. Example: HashMap<String, Integer> map = new HashMap<>();
Hashtable is synchronized, making it thread-safe but slower. Example: Hashtable<String, Integer> table = new Hashtable<>();
HashMap allows null keys a...
- Q2. Why typescript over javascript
- Ans.
TypeScript enhances JavaScript with static typing, better tooling, and improved maintainability for large applications.
Static Typing: TypeScript allows developers to define types, reducing runtime errors. Example: `let num: number = 5;`
Enhanced Tooling: TypeScript provides better IDE support with features like autocompletion and refactoring tools.
Improved Readability: Type annotations make the code more understandable,...
- Q3. Find the percentage of increace in the quantity of item after making it price 20% extra
- Ans.
Calculate the percentage increase in item quantity when its price is raised by 20%.
When the price increases, demand may decrease, affecting quantity sold.
If price rises by 20%, consumers may buy less, leading to a potential decrease in quantity.
Example: If an item costs $100 and is increased to $120, consumers may buy fewer units.
The actual percentage change in quantity depends on price elasticity of demand.
- Q4. What is normalization
- Q5. Date and time api available
- Ans.
Various APIs exist for handling date and time, including JavaScript's Date, Python's datetime, and Java's LocalDateTime.
JavaScript: Use the Date object for current date/time: `new Date()`.
Python: The datetime module allows for date manipulation: `from datetime import datetime`.
Java: LocalDateTime class in java.time package for date/time without timezone: `LocalDateTime.now()`.
REST APIs: Many web services provide endpoi...
