No experience with Zscaler. But to install a pkg you simply run it and go through the installer. No further steps. You can search for expected installation artifacts with spotlight. It presumably installed app artifacts to /Applications or /Users/<username>/Applications
System settings can also have been added as a pane in system settings/preferences

Thanks for your response, at the end of the installation it said that Zscaler is installed. but I can't find it... in the applications, the software is not there!

Did you search for it with Spotlight? Both /Applications and /Users/<username>/Applications are common installation paths for applications. But searching for it with Spotlight will find it regardless of where it installed to.

Yes sir I did a search with the spotlight, unfortunately no result!!
 
According to their docs it should create a folder in your applications directory as such

It is possible they have multiple packages. One for clients and one for server installations or similar. You may want to check you installed the right one.
Nothing further should be needed but since I’m not familiar with using Zscaler specifically I can’t help much further than this is you’re not seeing what the docs describe. In that case I advice contacting their support

What program are you viewing this with in the image? That doesn't look like Finder

A .app is a special folder that, on a Mac, you can open as a program. It technically has a folder structure inside it, where Contents->MacOS contains the binary executables, in this case you're viewing a shell script and two Mach-O executables. These are not normally run manually, instead you simply run the .app itself and macOS will run one of the binaries from within this structure and have access to any resources from the app bundle as well if the program references them. This allows apps to be very self contained within the .app bundle.
Nothing is zipped
