Very similar to the other big four. I had an excellent experience, all the people I met were great. I was flown out, put up in a hotel, and compensated for my expenses. The interview consisted of a information session, two interviews, and a lunch.

3. most significant accomplishment within the last 6 months
4. what is you main weakness
5. how did you motivate yourself on a task you didn't enjoy

Interviewed Nov 2007 (took 2 days)
I interviewed with EY on my college campus. I had been to several of EYs on campus recruiting events. The interview was extremely laid back as I had already knew of the recruiters from the on campus events. We discussed my resume and any question I had about the position
