Interview
I was interviewed for the Client Accountant Admiration and move up to Experienced Associate. The process was I had a phone interview. Then I had an interview with two individuals from Audit and Tax. Then I interviewed with a partner form the firm. After that I got a job office from the firm.
4 interview: 1 screening, 1 case, 2 behavioral. The case study is fairly open-ended. You need to go in with a basic understanding of business concepts, but you won't be quizzed on anything. The 2 behavioral are casual conversations. They are mainly looking for logic/reasoning skills, communication, and confidence. The hardest thing is getting an interview. I was lucky to have an employee referral.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Describe a recent business transaction in the news.
4 rounds for lateral hires. The candidate must be well versed in the domain they are applying for as question will be pertaining to those. The interview should be okay if you are prepared
The interview process as a whole was conversational in nature and did not touch on any technical areas. Significant prior knowledge or experiences were not the priority. Not difficult overall.
