I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at HGS
Interview
Interviews were friendly and professional, primarily one on one but there was one panel. The downside was the number of interviews; I had 5 on 5 different days. The majority were 30 minute video sessions, but there was one onsite which included a tour of the facility and a few quick chats with various employees.

Question 1
Most of the questions were situational "describe a time when..." which can be answered with the STAR method. Situation, Task, Action, Result. There was one question about handling a specific technical accounting matter.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at HGS (Waterloo, ON) in Aug 2025
Interview
Met with hr one time. Then the svp. Interview went seemingly well, was informed about the process and next steps. Interview was self driven as the svp didn't have many sprcific questions. They ghosted me the next week which I understand to be normal now. After a second interview I would expect some feedback or email letting candidates know whatsup. I did email to follow up with the recruiter. No reply.
