I applied in-person. I interviewed at Forvis Mazars, LLP (London, England) in Jan 2024
Interview
The interview process at the audit firm was both challenging and enlightening. It began with an online application, followed by an aptitude test that assessed my numerical and verbal reasoning skills. After clearing the test, I was invited for a virtual interview, which consisted of both behavioral and technical questions.
In the behavioral segment, I was asked to discuss my previous experiences, particularly focusing on situations where I demonstrated teamwork, attention to detail, and problem-solving abilities. I talked about my time working on a consulting project where I had to analyze financial data to identify discrepancies and propose solutions, which was directly relevant to the role I was applying for.
The process was low pressure. The interview was a friendly conversation about career goals with the recruiter. You will not be tested on difficult technical or industry questions, which is what I was expecting.

Interview
The HR interview felt like a scripted formality. It was painfully clear to both of us that an offer wasn't coming, making the entire conversation an exercise in going through motions.
Interview was very straight forward with questions about past experience and some other personal questions. The recruiter was great and answered all of my questions. They also got back to me quickly about the interview decision.
