I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at ZS Associates
Interview
I applied through LinkedIn. Two weeks later, I was asked to schedule a call. The call was with a recruiter in the UK, they did not have specific details of the position or the local office but were very helpful in describing the interview process. I received an email from local HR staff soon after to schedule three interviews.
4 rounds
1. Screening with Recruiter
- Talked about resume, ZS, and compensation expectations
2. Behavioral
- Simple behavioral questions related to resume and previous experience
3. Unstructured Case
- 1st part was about a project I led/supported in a lot of detail and asked about things I would change or improve if I were to do it again
-2nd part was about opening a coffee shop and what things to consider (very conversational with my interviewer)
4. Structured Case
- Hardest one for me. I have a background in engineering and don't know too much about growing a struggling business. Mostly interpreting the case information, analyzing graphs, and doing some drawn out calculation with %s of %s
There was an initial 30min call with HR about the position and motivation. Afterwards, there was an the assessment day made up of 4 different 30min interviews:
1. Case Study
2. Behavioural Questions
3. Case Study
4. example project (casual talk)
