I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Zscaler (Los Angeles, CA)
Interview
The recruiter was excellent. The vetting process went well. The initial interview was with the hiring manager. He was aggressive and demeaning. I chose not move forward with the interview.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Zscaler (Bengaluru) in May 2025
Interview
Overall good experience with Zscaler. Interviewer and HR both were very accomodative. 3 rounds of technical and then HR. They assess on good people management skills and grill on technical aspect as well.
Talent Recruiter was definitely skilled, really a great attitude and the conversation was absolutely interesting and relaxed, however had to chase for a feedback afterward. Questions were on point, and the talk lasted almost 40 minutes
