I have given the online aptitude test of zeus learning (on campus) , which was the very first round and the test was divided into two parts, first part was mostly coding-decoding questions (aptitude) which was easy according to me but it was tricky too and second part included 2 dsa question and both the questions were of easy level.

Test was of 1.5 hrs and it was online. It was completely based on technical questions.

This test was offline and it was a pen paper test wherein 10 questions will be given you have to write code or spot the error and correct them.
