I applied online. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at BDO (London, England) in Feb 2020
Interview
I applied online, did psychometric tests, video interview and assessment centre.
Very well organised assessment day, the activities ran very smoothly.
The day consisted of a group exercise, a written task, a presentation you need to prepare on the day and a 1-1 interview with a senior manager, as well as a Q&A with the current graduates. The interview was very informal, more or a discussion, really friendly atmosphere overall.
Online interviews followed by assessment centre followed by director interview, all pleasant and organised process throughout. Single recruitment person was my contact throughout which was helpful and she was very pleasant
It was a very casual and welcoming environment. I got a good impression of the company. There were no questions to throw you off, just questions about past experience, motivational, situational etc
