I applied online. I interviewed at EY (Cluj-Napoca) in Mar 2022
Interview
In this technical test, there was 20 coding question (Java, MYSQL, JavaScript). They tested how I think through many coding problems. It was interesting because it wasn't a test of what I already knew (I had never seen the language we were using in that exercise) but rather seeing how I learn when introduced to something new. That session didn't feel like I was being interviewed but more like solving a challenge, through which I was being supported the whole way through. I could ask as many questions as I needed to about things I was unsure about.
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.
