I applied through college or university. I interviewed at ZS Associates
Interview
First round consisted of a generic behavioral and a technical. The technical portion involved chart reading and some simple math.
Super day was with 5 members of the firm, from entry level analysts to a partner. There was a case not unlike what was presented in the first round. The partner gave the behavioral. A work sample portion involved an analyst showing the interviewee some decks and asking questions on what they imply. A more unique approach was a section where the interviewee completes some questions based on graphs without any outside interaction, then presenting the results to a member of the firm.
I sent in my resume through my school’s career portal. This was followed by an on campus interview with two different people. The process was smooth and quick. I received a call with an offer later that week.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at ZS Associates (Gurgaon, Haryana) in May 2025
