I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at EY (Johor Bahru) in Feb 2020
Interview
Business case, behavioural questions, written tests and face to face interview was quick. The director that interviewed myself was quite chill and nice.
Nothing difficult, questions are standard. Processing time was longer than expected
Two rounds of interview. First with Senior Manager or Director. Final with Partner. First mostly technical, second more relaxed, seeing fit and all that. Overall chill and not that bad
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Mostl around previous experience and things in my CV
Straight forward process. Not very thorough and interviewer asked fairly basic questions. Didn't give much information about the company, clients or culture which would have been useful. Seemed fairly disinterested.
Fast two‑round processes where both interviews are directly with Directors or Partners, combined with immediate HR scheduling after an online application, usually signal a high‑priority vacancy and a shortlist that’s already been narrowed. It often means they’re moving quickly to secure strong candidates and want decision‑makers involved early to avoid delays.
