Very fast interview. Quick to the point. Didn’t take to long. Was able to ask my questions. They were extremely friendly and welcoming. I was able to calm my nerves and be myself . One of my easiest best interviews in Atlanta.
I applied through college or university. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Warren Averett (Tuscaloosa, AL) in Sep 2014
Interview
Interview was pretty standard. I interviewed in AL at my college recruiting center. There were two recruiters there, both from Birmingham. We spoke about my studies in school, what department I was considering, when I could intern (some schools do January - April 15/January - March 15/February 15-April 15/etc. based on classes your senior year). I WOULD DEFINITELY SUGGEST COMING WITH QUESTIONS. It is best to come to Meet the Firms at your school early and speak with them so you can be invited to socials, but not necessary. I didn't attend any of their socials and still got an offer, but it came down to my experience/grades/resume/interview. Do your research before you come and be prepared with questions about intern expectations, typical work week, typical work, etc. I would suggest doing an office visit too because all the offices have a different personality.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How do you think your experiences and classes have prepared you for the workforce in general and for the accounting profession specifically?
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Warren Averett (Huntsville, AL) in Aug 2012
Interview
Emailed resume to HR to inquire about possible internships. Contacted a few weeks later to set up an interview. Met with two HR representatives who mainly wanted to know about my experience and interests. They talked extensively about their selection philosophy and the use of psychological techniques. Didn't really have any difficult questions and seemed extremely impressed by my grades and work experience. Not quite sure why I didn't get an offer as it seemed near perfect. Assuming my resume fell to the bottom of the pile since I interviewed so early on the in recruiting cycle.
Funny side note, after I received my rejection letter (two months after my interview) their internship was advertised by a professor of mine in class. Just thought that was interesting...not sure what they want.
