Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at EY-Parthenon.
Director
The interview process was excessively long, spanning months and including repetitive tasks and questions, with long periods of no communication. Despite this lengthy process, it ended with them hiring someone else. The lack of clarity and drawn-out timeline was frustrating and felt like a waste of my time and energy.
- Can you discuss your experience with integrating and executing post-merger acquisitions?
Director
The interview process was pretty long, lasting about 3-4 months with 5 interviews in total. I met with 3 Partners, 1 Director, and 1 MD. The first four interviews were mostly about checking if I had the right technical skills, and the last one was to see how I'd fit into the company culture.
- What motivates you to want to join EY-Parthenon?
Director
The interview process started with Round 1, which involved one behavioral interview and one case interview. Following that, Round 2 consisted of a behavioral interview, a transaction case, a strategy case, and a group case. Each individual interview lasted for 30 minutes, while the group case was 50 minutes long, with 40 minutes dedicated to working with the team on the case and 10 minutes for Q&A with the clients. There were facilitators observing the group work.
- Can you share an instance where you encountered a challenging team dynamic?
