      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at EY (Zürich) in Jan 2025

      Interview

      Sehr Professionell, nette Leute. Erst 30min über Persönliche Erfahrungen, motivationen reden und dann praktische Fragen gestellt bekommen. Sehr anspruchsvoll, schwer zu schaffen ohne Vorwissen/Vorbereitung. Aber immer fair. Es wird sich Zeit genommen und man hat Möglichkeiten alle Fragen zu stellen, die man hat
