I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at EY (London, England) in Mar 2020
Interview
Stage 3 Numerical:
Very simple, consisted of ratios, percentages and quick math. My advice is to complete under 15 minutes and be familiar with how to read tabled and graphs. Also the questions seem harder than what they actually are. Don't overthink. They are testing your speed though maintain that they don't. I think they mean to say that they want to see how confident you are with numbers.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
*table containing profits and costs of different goods*
What is the percentage increase in profit in year 1 and 4.
The interview was relatively straight forward and focused on my ability to articulate my skills and experiences as in my CV, aligning my expectations with theirs, and answering my questions on the company culture, job scope etc.
The interview process was lengthy. I completed online assessments before a final video interview, and I went in blind, with no idea what questions might come up. I'd recommend preparing example questions beforehand for the digital interview.
