I applied through an employee referral. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at EY (Gurgaon, Haryana) in Jun 2023
Interview
It was a one month process for four stages of interview from team to Partner level. They asked analytical questions and assessed past experience and relevance to current role.
They also wanted to understand technical skillsets and appreciate more of specialised skillsets as opposed to generalist but this can differ from each interviewer and project requirements.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1

I applied online. I interviewed at EY (Manchester, England)
Interview
3/5, very long stages, my application process was over 8 months. the employees were lovely. i asked for feedback but never received any, even though they sent me an email stating i could receive some. each stage was relatively easy.
Good, Smooth. Final Interview had was behavioural mostly, with regular motivation questions. Interviewer had no previous knowledge of other performances before or even looked at CV. Very relaxed environment, smooth process
Premier entretien online (RH), assessement day aux bureaux (surtout pour voir comment on intéragit avec les autres, aussi des petits exercices de pitch assez facile de se préparer à l'avance ils préviennent des thèmes) puis online interview avec un manager (questions sur la personne, pas trop technique)
