ZS Associates interview questions

Aptitude test in a room full of computers. Testing English and mathematics skills. Very limited time and they pre-screened people there and then to go to the next round, which was a face to face with a ZS member. Asked standard questions about CV, thoughts about the company, why do I want to be a consultant etc. Final stage was a day at the office; 3 rounds of interview. First round was analysing a graph and responding, as well as guestimate questions (how much petrol is consumed in one week in the UK). Second stage was analysing a folder of documents to discuss with a senior ZS member - investigating ability to process information. FInal round to discuss with another senior ZS member about CV, why join ZS etc.

First round interviews took place at my university's recruiting center. Consisted of two back to back 30 min interviews (one behavioral, one case). The interviewers were very friendly and cordial. Behavioral interview involved basic fit questions, nothing fancy or special. Could tell that the company wanted individuals who were receptive to the culture and could multi-task in collaborative teams. The case was pre-structured and was fairly quantitative, but interviewer was encouraging and willing to help when needed. Second round interviews took place at the office. It consisted of three back to back interviews (one fit with a principle, one business skills / mini case with a manager, and one case). It also included a neat little demonstration by a current consultant exposing you to the daily work they are involved with. The office culture was great, the atmosphere was friendly, and overall a very positive experience. The entire recruiting process only took three weeks, was very efficient and transparent. Great experience.
