Three part interview - one behavioral followed by two cases (structured and unstructured). Loved that all the interviewers were leaders at the firm, mostly Principals (equivalent of partner), it showed that they want interns to see what the firms' leadership is like.

Question 1
What was one experience where you failed, and how did you deal with it?
I applied through the company website, and about a month later the HR reached out to schedule a phone interview. The interview lasted only around 10 minutes, and two days afterward I was informed that I had been rejected.
Very straightforward process, 1 round of case + a final round of 1 behavioral, 1 structured case, and 1 unstructured case.
I'd recommend brushing up on your brainstorming skills and quick math.
I applied online. I interviewed at ZS Associates (Princeton, NJ)

I have only gone through the first-round interview, which was a recorded video format. The interview consisted of three behavioral-based questions, where I was given three minutes to think and prepare my response before recording my answer. Each response had a time limit of two minutes. There was no live interaction with an interviewer, and the entire process was automated.
