I applied online. I interviewed at EY (Peking, Peking)
Interview
Medium level interview, financial modeling, market sizing， why you want to come to EY? what's your career objective? etc. How many years are you going to stay? Do you like consulting?

Question 1
Can you please estimate the market size of the pingpong balls worldwide？
Two rounds of interview. First with Senior Manager or Director. Final with Partner. First mostly technical, second more relaxed, seeing fit and all that. Overall chill and not that bad

Question 1
Mostl around previous experience and things in my CV
Straight forward process. Not very thorough and interviewer asked fairly basic questions. Didn't give much information about the company, clients or culture which would have been useful. Seemed fairly disinterested.
Fast two‑round processes where both interviews are directly with Directors or Partners, combined with immediate HR scheduling after an online application, usually signal a high‑priority vacancy and a shortlist that’s already been narrowed. It often means they’re moving quickly to secure strong candidates and want decision‑makers involved early to avoid delays.
