I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at EY (Jakarta) in Oct 2013
Interview
1. Phone Interview (overseas atm). Pretty standard type of interview like, why EY, why financial service company, why you choose that specific department, and personal questions related to your education and CV.
Had to wait for 1-2 weeks until they confirmed you the date and time for english test.
2. English Test. The test was quite easy and straight forward, probably like High School level english test. Grammar, vocabulary, synonyms/antonyms, and completing sentences.
Also had to wait for another 1-2 weeks.
Process took roughly a month until they fully confirmed your position and informed the first day.
