I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at EY in Dec 2012
Interview
First round interview was over the phone and lasted roughly 20-30 minutes. The interviewer asked me to tell me about a couple of things on my resume, then began to ask behavioral interview questions: tell me about a time you worked in a team, what was your biggest challenge, etc. Interviewer then gave me time at the end to ask questions.
Normal process interview with basic questions. About the firm and why ey. Fair interview normal questions. I thought it was a good experience overall. I learned a lot about the firm and the marker
There were multiple steps but quite similar to generic case studies with some changes. Practice is definitely necessary for quick answers. Overall was a good experience, quick and creative thinking is required to impress interviewer.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What is a good strategy for a case that they choose
Typical digital screening, superday at office consisted of detailed info session & lunch with a group of other candidates, two informational interviews and 1 case interview (given written case to look over, talk it through with interviewer, less structured than rigid McKinsey format)
