I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at EY
Interview
It was quite short and just basic questions - they really want to get to know you
it was more about personality and personal interests to see if you would gel with the organizations culture

I applied through college or university. I interviewed at EY (Fairfax, VA) in Sep 2020
Interview
5 question one sided video interview. They give you 48 hours to complete it and only 2 tries per question. This is what they use to screen you for the first step. I didn't get past this step. They boil down your years of experience and studies to do accounting with a tool that would reward communications/drama majors better.
