Interview
Had to submit a strange profile through Headstart, and then repeat all the information again when they asked me to fill in a more typical application form, including CV upload. They then asked for verbal and numerical reasoning tests, which were fine, and I then received an invitation to complete a video interview with HireVue. I didn't find the experience of talking to my laptop screen very pleasant, especially since you have no choice but to see the video of yourself whilst you're speaking, and despite being told otherwise I had no option to re-do any of my answers. The questions do require you to read up on Accenture and prepare, and the case-study questions I found fairly simple but very repetitive. The experience was overall positive up to this point, but I was considerably less impressed when it took them 3 months to get back to me (they said it would take 10-15 working days) and let me know that they were no longer recruiting. Not what I expected from such a well-known company.
