Very friendly interview with an experienced partner. Not the type of interview where their aim is to trip you up and introduce synthetic difficulty, instead it is more of a personal screening.

Question 1
What do you see as the biggest challenge facing EY and the financial industry.
Interview was not bad. Pretty standard for consulting firms. Asked behaviours questions mostly (eg tell me about a time you worked in a team etc). Some technical questions. There was a group interview of 5 applicants and two assessors.
I applied in-person. I interviewed at EY (Sydney) in Oct 2023
Interview
I submitted my application. Then I received an email with a link to an online assessment which was a combination of numerical reasoning, behavioural questions and one case study question. Around one month later I received and email asking for a phone interview (This was very brief - asking about what I already know about the role/ will I be interested in doing a CA after university etc). Finally, I received a final in-person interview this entailed a 15 minute presentation on an assessment called 'Point-Of-View Assessment,' followed by a 60 minute behavioural and motivation email.

Question 1
Why EY? How do you keep up to date with the news? How do you stay organised juggling your university, part time work and extra curricula's?
