What to know before you apply
ZS's own interview-process page describes an online assessment (logical, quantitative and qualitative reasoning, with big-data concepts for some roles) and 2 to 4 behavioural, case and subject-matter interviews; it gives no eligibility or pay. 2026-27 season: a pre-placement talk at MSIT Delhi in Sept 2026 for final-year students, and an off-campus BTSA window of 25 Sep to 22 Oct 2026 listed by an aggregator. Eligibility reports conflict (7.0 / 70%, 6.0 / 60%, or no universal cutoff), so none is shown; one prep site limits BTSA to CSE, IT and ECE while another calls it broad. Reported BTSA test (2024): the common cognitive test, then 2 SQL queries on a given schema and 1-2 coding problems, then technical, case-style and HR interviews with guesstimates. Pay is reported by aggregators at ₹10-12 or ₹10-13 LPA, not by ZS; the shared ₹10 LPA floor is shown. The Decision Analytics Associate track uses the same common test plus a case round and is not listed separately.
