Senior interviewer, strengths and motivation under harder pressure
The question shapes this round uses. Larpy does not read these out. It builds each one from your own resume, because the generic version is the one you have already rehearsed.
EY’s published process. Lime marks the stage this round runs.
Built from what EY publishes about its own process. No leaked question lists. The questions you get are generated against your own resume, so they are not from anyone else's interview.
Behavioral interviewing and the three checks every answer is measured against (relevant experience, action taken, what it led to); 'one or more phone, video and in-person conversations'; the prerecorded option where candidates record responses to questions sent in advance; 'Mindset is as important as skill set.'
The same three checks and the same behavioral-interviewing language on EY's global page, confirming this is firm-wide guidance rather than one market's.
'Your interview experience will be a combination of in-person, phone and video'; a written assessment 'either online or at a testing center' for some roles; writing samples or coding questions submitted for certain positions; formal written offer.
Three-phase funnel (search and apply, interview, offer); screening on 'academic background, skill set and work experience'; 'A decision is usually made quickly after the final interview.'
The early-careers stage list: application, online assessments containing 'rank order, written and recorded video answers, and, where applicable to your programme, a time-recorded Numeric Reasoning Test', the EY Experience Day, and a final interview with senior team members, all scored against 'the core EY strengths framework'.
The nine named EY strengths (adaptability, curiosity, collaboration, learning agility, resilience, relationship building, integrity, personal ownership, motivation) and the rationale: 'Strengths help us to provide a level playing field for all candidates, as they are individual to each person.'
Application taking about 30 minutes; 'Your interview experience may be a combination of in-person, phone and video'; interviews covering relevant work experience and 'your view on current market trends and sector developments'.
'Candidates can expect a mix of behavioral and case-based interviews with multiple EY-Parthenon professionals'; 'Offer decisions are typically communicated within a week from your interviews.'
The same behavioral-and-case interview mix and one-week offer window at the experienced consultant level.
