      Strategy Insights & Planning Consultant Interview

      Difficult interview

      Application

      I interviewed at ZS Associates

      Interview

      The presentation round might appear very tricky since you have just 1 hour to prep and present. Focus on how you communicate rather than having a beautiful presentation. 1 hr is too short a time. They know that as well as you do.

      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at ZS Associates in Sep 2025

      Interview

      I had a disappointing experience with one of the company’s recruiters. She mentioned that she had called me three times using a technology-based calling service, but I never received any of those calls. When I asked politely if there was another way we could connect—such as using a direct phone number or perhaps a video service (i.e. Zoom/Teams/Google Meets)—she declined to offer alternatives and instead closed out my application. This approach felt unnecessarily rigid and unprofessional. Technical issues can happen, and candidates should be given a fair chance to engage in the process. A recruiter’s role is to facilitate communication, and the unwillingness to do so reflects poorly on the company’s hiring practices and overall candidate experience.
