I applied through college or university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at ZS Associates (New York, NY)
Interview
Applied through campus recruiting, three rounds of 30-minute interviews back to back. It was a pretty chill atmosphere, probably one of the best out of the ones I experienced.
I think the key is doing your research on the company values and knowing exactly what differentiated ZS from other firms.

Question 1
Behavioral and Fit, Structured Case, Unstructured Case
Phone screening > 2 case study interviews + personality/fit/general interview > offer. There was 3 month gap between phone screening and getting offered the first interview which was not the most ideal.

Question 1
Typical case study questions that you will be asked in consulting interviews. There was a qualitative case with one interviewer and a quantitative case (with graphs/figures) with another interviewer.
There are three interviews in 1 day -- 1 behavioral, 1 unstructured case, 1 structured case. There are 3 different interviewers per interview, where you will engage with a few managers, consultants, and associate principals

Question 1
Tell me a time where you were stressed / overwhelmed and how did you handle it, in a team environment?
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at ZS Associates
Interview
Very pleasant and straight forward. Consisted of 2 rounds - the first one being one case, and the second being two case interviews and one behavioral. You have about a week notice between rounds, which gives time to prep. There are also practice cases online that help a lot!
