Zoom·Software Engineer·Technical Phone Screen

May 2026
Interviewed for a security engineer role at Zoom. Just one technical troubleshooting question from what I can tell, felt more like a quick screen than a deep dive.
  • You try to access a team website and get a 404 error, but everyone else on your team can reach it just fine. What's going on?

“My first instinct was DNS caching or a local hosts file override, which is probably where most people go.”

Did a security-focused technical screen at Zoom. Just one question but it went pretty deep into OAuth internals and attack surfaces.
  • How would you approach attacking the OAuth workflow?

“I started with the obvious stuff, redirect URI manipulation and token leakage, but then kind of stalled when they pushed me on more subtle flows.”

Zoom·Software Engineer·Technical Phone Screen

Apr 2026
Interviewed for a security engineer role at Zoom. Single technical question focused on vulnerability detection across endpoints, which sounds straightforward until you actually have to explain your methodology out loud.
  • How would you identify vulnerable or outdated software running on employee machines across an organization?

“I went with asset inventory and agent-based scanning, talked through something like an EDR or endpoint management tool correlating installed software versions against a CVE feed.”
