I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Zscaler (Dallas, TX) in July 2021
Interview
This is an in-depth interview process. Zscaler is, wisely, very selective with who they hire so bring your A-Game!
There were three parts to this interview process. First, a short call with their recruiting department. Second, an interview with one of the SDR Managers where you do some mock cold calling. Third and most challenging of all, a panel interview where you present a PPT explaining why you are choosing Zscaler, what your weekly routine would look like, researching two leads and what your emails to them would look like, mock cold calling, and a little about yourself personally and professionally.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Zscaler in Jan 2026
Interview
There are two interview stages after the phone screening. The first is a 30-minute interview with the hiring manager, followed by a 30-minute mock cold email exercise. If selected to move forward, the next stage will include an interview with an account executive, and possibly a sales engineer, along with a mock call.

Interview
Straightforward (although lengthy) interview process. Be prepared to answer behavioral and identity questions, as well as a final round mock cold call and email exercise. initial rounds are 1x1 until final panel. Expect 2-3 managers on the call.

Interview
Not too hard just have to study and understand the product you're selling. Consists of three separate interviews. Be engaged and bring some energy to each one. The last one is a panel with multiple managers.
