I applied online. I interviewed at ZS Associates (Pune) in Jul 2021
Interview
There were two interview rounds only.
1. Case Study: 1 hour round based on a case. It includes guestimates, Chart explanation, calculation, and final summary.
2. Fit Round: It includes questions related to your past experience, managerial skills etc.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Guestimates, Charts, Calculation,
Past Experience etc
Case study round was interesting- there was a lot of extra information to confuse you but at the end it is basics you have to focus on. Technical and HR round was not too difficult.
I applied through college or university. I interviewed at ZS Associates (Chennai) in Sep 2022
Interview
The hiring was done at a bschool, hence for offcampus the process might differ. After initial screening, a submission had to be done through a hackathon(business case). Post that, the shortlisted students had two interviews- first being a thorough case discussion, guestimate and second being mixture of puzzle, behavioural questions, work ex related ques and guestimates.
