I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at EY
Interview
Standard behavioural competency questions where it’s clear the interviewer is reading off a list of questions. The whole process lacked the human touch, and very clear you are just going to be another head count. There isn’t a specific role lined up so difficult to ask meaningful probing questions.

Question 1
Why do you want this role as opposed to working at another Big 4
I applied through a staffing agency. I interviewed at EY (London, England)
Interview
Three stages, first was remote.
Really great impression from all the interviewers. The organisation, communication and feedback across the stages was very good.
In particular I appreciated the direct communication style and feedback - many interviewers remain vague but I found feedback throughout the process considered and helpful.
Quick and transparent process supported by their talent acquisition partners. Unlike many other hirers, they actually provided feedback following interviews! The interviews were mostly conversational and not relying on the STAR approach.
