EY's process includes an initial screening, online assessments, behavioral and case interviews, and a final round with senior leadership. Candidates can expect multiple rounds of interviews focusing on technical skills, problem-solving abilities, and cultural fit.
Initial Screening: A recruiter screens applications and may conduct an initial phone or video call to assess fit and motivation.
Online Assessments: This can include aptitude tests, coding challenges, and online job simulations with situational judgment, video, and written components.
Core Interviews: Typically involves multiple rounds with consultants and managers. These are a mix of behavioral (using the STAR method) and individual or group case interviews to assess problem-solving and strategic thinking.
Final Round: The final stage usually includes interviews with senior partners to evaluate leadership potential and team fit.
