Hi everyone. 30 min unstructured and 1 hour structured case at ZS associates for a associate consultant position. Can use all the advice/help I can get as I am 23 yo and have never done a case interview before. Thank you in advance!

Do as many practice case studies as possible online. When you get into the interview, document assumptions and explain how you’d solve the problem. You won’t have enough time to solve the whole case

lol what? R U serious?

I’m probably not going to get it anyways 🤣

Damn if you got an AC interview at ZS at 23 with 1 YOE at KPMG we really are desperate for resources 🤓 nothing personal, good luck though!

OP, did it work? I’m 22, 8 months experience. Associate role for SIPA. No case interview experience as well

How did it go?

I am trying to figure out how to switch to SWE. I have a masters in civil engineering and have a good background in higher level math. It looks like the better coding boot camps are quite expensive. The alternative is another masters in CS which is the same cost as many boot camps. Any recommendations on picking between a coding boot camp and getting another masters degree in CS? I’m looking to get into the best position possible after getting an education in CS (get a job quick and good pay).

3 YOE in Marketing through internships in college, followed by 2 years Financial Operations/Data Tools full-time. I got an offer for $75K at TekSystems for a Market Analyst role. I gave them a range of $70-75K, so they gave the max. But I am questioning asking for a bit more given insurance is apparently on the higher-end and I want to ensure I didn't low-ball myself.

Just to note, this is about a 25% increase compared to what I am currently making.
