I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at EY (London, England) in Feb 2025
Interview
The process was smooth and the hr very responsive in the London office. It involved 4 steps: a first call with the HR, two technical competency based interviews with Directors, one final call with a partner. After each interview they will call you and give a feedback, so that you can prepare yourself.
Interviews are not easy, as they will go deep into your knowledge. The partner call was more conversational than an interview. Overall, all of them were friendly and the process went smooth.

Question 1
- Tell me about yourself
- Why EY and not another big 4?
- What's the best way of delivering X project and why?
Molto semplice. Colloquio solo di tipo conoscitivo, pochissime domande tecniche e molto basilari. Mi è stato testato l'inglese, ma anche questo a livelli basilari. Specifico che il colloquio sia stato sostenuto però da figura junior, vale a dire.

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.
