The interview process was a pleasant experience. The interviewer was nice and friendly, and shared with me more about their experience working in the firm and firm culture, and answered the questions that i have for them
The interview mainly consisted of behavioral questions, with a strong focus on ‘Tell me about a time when…’ scenarios. These mainly assessed teamwork, problem-solving, communication skills, and ability to handle challenges
It was a good interview process where they test your accounting knowledge and ability to work in a team. They also ask you behavioural questions as well. Best to prepare as much as possible beforehand
Very straightforward, partners & senior managers were friendly and asked expected technical questions. Key thing to stand out is to really research the company and how the grad programme works - focus on exactly what you will do in assurance, what the role would look like and also some basic accounting understanding.
