I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at ZS Associates (Pune) in Jan 2019
Interview
There are basically three interview rounds:
1. Case study : You were given a case study booklet with lots of data and graphs followed by questions , you need to be really good at data interpretation and quant to ace this round. Attention for detail is also tested. In the interview about the same, your approach is put to test, less focused on final result.
2. Behavioural Interview- Resume Probe. Please be prepared to solve structured and unstructured problems (brain teasers, guesstimates, puzzles)
3. Fit Round – You will have an opportunity to meet with one of the senior ZS manager’ to discuss growth opportunities, career path and ZS vision in general.

Question 1
There was a guesstimate question in round 2, which was very random, as expected.
Q: How many kgs of chicken is sold in your city per annum?
Smooth and transparent. Technical and manager rounds are mostly constitutes around how you go about a problem/situation, thinking process and execution. Overall, the entire process depends on how you go about it, just need to be confident and cognitively strong with good thinking and problem solving skills
The interview process was condensed to interviews, both split between a behavioral section and case study section. For the case studies they do require you to read many charts and graphs.
