I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at ZS Associates
Difficult interview
Application
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at ZS Associates in Feb 2022
Interview
I applied on Handshake through my university, and was contacted by a recruiter maybe 2 weeks later. Set up a phone call with her, which was a bit of a background on myself and ZS, as well as why I was interested in working at ZS. From there, she moved me onto the super day. This involved 3, 30 minute interviews - 1 behavioural, 1 structured case (math, come to a conclusion at the end), and 1 unstructured case (more of just a conversation). Received a verbal offer 6 days after my super day, and offer letter 2 days after that.

Três etapas online: Behavioral interview, Structured case interview, Analytic interview.
Apenas a primeira em inglês. As duas últimas envolviam o entendimento e a resolução de cases em que o entrevistador ia revelando mais infos conforme você "resolvia" o que ele perguntava em cada momento,

I interviewed at ZS Associates (South San Francisco, CA)
Interview
It was pretty straightforward. Started with a recruiter phone screen, then proceeded to another basic case, then two more cases after that and an interview with one of the partners. They were all very kind.
The interview process consists of three rounds, each lasting 30 minutes or so. It includes a behavioral interview to assess fit and two case interviews to evaluate analytical and problem-solving skills.
