Behavioral Presentation

So, the interview process is pretty straightforward. You'll have a video interview where you're asked 8 questions. For each question, you get 2 minutes to think about it and then 3 minutes to record your answer. After that, there's a short report you need to complete that's related to your specific line of business.

Behavioral Technical

I applied for the Tax Graduate Programme and just completed the digital interview, which was pretty interesting. Part A had questions about challenges, decisions, and actions after a mistake. I felt the prep time was really short and I didn't organize myself well. My advice is to get the main points and speak clearly using the STAR technique. Part B flew by! Just stay calm, read the info carefully, and structure your answer as clearly as possible.

It was a pretty relaxed chat. They kicked things off by asking me what I knew about the company, so definitely do your homework on that. Then they asked about the qualifications I'd get, which I found a bit weird since you don't really study during a placement. After that, it was just the usual interview stuff.
