I applied through university. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Accenture (London, England) in Nov 2017
Interview
1)apply online - application 2) pyschometric testing 3) video interview 4) assessment centre. Fairly standard industrial placement process. Make sure you do lots of research of company and into the case studies.
Completed personality assessment on Cappfinity with the stereotypical questions on work preferences. Very similar to others, with a small section of verbal and numerical reasoning, but nothing too hard. Would recommend, does not take too long.
Overall a very interesting, yet challenging, experience. Different stages had to be completed during the assessment centre such as a partner task, immersive assessment and a presentation. The interview focused on strength-based questions.

Hey, thanks for your kind review. This will help others to effectively prepare themselves for interviews with us. Highly appreciated! And now on to a bright future with Accenture. Your Accenture Recruiting team.
The main interview was part of a half-day assessment centre (virtual because of COVID). The assessment centre consisted of a variety of tasks but it was actually a very pleasant experience, the recruitment team did all they could to make everyone feel comfortable and supported throughout which made a huge different.
