Tips for Success at Zscaler

  • Start with the 15 most reported Zscaler questions, then work down the list.

  • Mediums are the bulk of the list (40%), so spend most of your time there.

  • Time yourself: 20 to 30 minutes per medium, then explain your solution out loud as if to an interviewer.

  • After each problem write down the pattern and the signal that revealed it. Patterns transfer to problems you have not seen.

  • Pair coding practice with a system design framework and prepared behavioral stories; most loops include more than coding.
