I applied through university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at EY (Gurgaon, Haryana) in Apr 2011
Interview
Multiple rounds that included an HR round and two technical rounds.
During the technical rounds I was asked guesstimation problems and few case studies.
Apart from that some questions related to my educational background (Finance and Marketing).
Overall the interview was a calm affair with the each interviewer making me comfortable.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What is outlook of the global car industry judging by its growth over the last century.
How many electricity poles are there between Delhi and Gurgaon (on the highway).
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.
