I need help prepping for ZS Associate Consultant interview process. How difficult are the behavioral and case studies from a scale of 1-10 and what are suggestions for case study practice. I feel like I get extremely nervous in interviews so would appreciate insight.

Interviewed before at ZS and people were nice and cases were relatively straight forward. Behavioural interviews you are just talking about yourself and your experiences, don’t overthink it

Case in Point by Marc Cosentino is the gold standard for consulting / IB approach - however the pharma examples within aren’t very good for us in the know and the technical details are weak or even a little wrong. But read your get your brain going in how to do classic cases and brush up on pharma basics.

I'm currently in a process for senior associate at a Big4. The process began on July, yet between the first and second interview it took like 3-4 weeks. And between the 2nd and 3rd like 7 weeks. I sent an email to HR during those weeks asking for an update and didn't have an answer. Then it a 3rd one was scheduled three times (the manager didn't connect to the first 2) and next week I have the last interview with 1 partner. Is the timing normal? Or were they looking for other candidates or what?
