      Advisory Interview

      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at EY in Oct 2013

      Interview

      I told my recruiter that I wanted a shot at Advisory. She called me on the phone for an initial screening and told me that there would be an essay and a case study. Fast forward about a week later, and I receive a link with my writing section attached. Here's the thing, when you click on the link to the actual webpage where the writing assignment is to be completed, there's a button on the page that says "Start". AS soon as you click on that button, it turns into a timer, counting down from 30 minutes (I don't remember the exact number- it was almost a year ago but you'll understand the point) and the question is revealed. My piece was about the use of technology in the business world. If you pass the writing section, you'll get an email from the campus recruiting asking you to set up an interview date. They'll fly you from wherever you are and put you in a local hotel. I was at the 5 Times Square office so they put me in a local Marriott on 40th Street. It was a pretty nice location. The following day you have a super day with 2 behavioral interviews, a case study and a pseudo-team interview (I say pseudo because you're in a room with all of the other interviewees and they ask you all very general questions/introductions. Don't sweat this too much but they're definitely watching you even in there!) The behavioral interviews are pretty run-of-the-mill with Managers/Partners/Seniors. Not too hard, just act like its a conversation- cuz it is. Case study is a bit more difficult and can be on anything business-related! Mine was about a company that's supposed to mimic Samsung and its relationship with it building screens for Apple. The interviewer was very nice and sought to help me out. I'm realizing they're really testing three things: 1: Whether you'll crack 2: You line of reasoning (if any) 3: Your general business acumen. Stay cool and updated on current happenings and you'll be fine. Smile a lot too.

      I interviewed at EY (Luxembourg)

      Interview

      only trick i found during the interview was that the language was switched to french half way through the interview with HR (as I had fluent on my CV), the rest standard, walk me through your CV, why EY, why luxembourg
