Duidelijk kennismakingsgeprek. Ging vlot. Ik had me aangemeld voor een netwerkingsevent en daar interesse getoond. Daarna contacteerde ze me via de telefoon voor een gesprek. Daar ben ik naartoe geweest en was er eigenlijk een kennismaking van 1 uur met de partners waarbij ze meer vertelden over hun job en bedrijf en mij vragen stelden over wat ik wil doen.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Beschrijf je opleidingsloopbaan? Welke vakken vond je interessant?
I applied online. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at RSM in Nov 2024
Interview
There was a 5 stage process: initial application form, online test (numerical and SJT), hirevue, an online assessment centre, and an in-person assessment centre.
The online assessment centre had a partner welcome, 2 group tasks (with 2-3 others), and an individual 15 minute task. Online AC was about 3 hours.
The in-person AC had 2 group tasks (with 2-3 others), an individual interview, and the rest of it was speaking to grads on RSM schemes. This was also about 3 hours.
The process was very time-consuming. Also, their in-person assessment centres are regionally based, so dependent on where you’ve applied you might have to travel to a different city. They do provide expensing for the in-person AC for travel, but not accommodation which could be an issue as their ACs start in the morning.
I think the in-person AC is only for consulting, not tax or audit.

Question 1
Why RSM and the role/division in consulting?
Questions about feedback and resilience too. (I.e are you proactive and focused on improving)? Pretty simple interview.
It was easy submitted application and then got invited for interview with partners straightaway
Process may have changed since Covid-19. It was not a formal interview but just casual conversation

Question 1
Basic behavioural questions but note it was towards end of covid and was more like casual catch up
