Talent Acquisition reached out to me about a month and a half ago. The actual interview process didn't kick off until a month and a half later because the hiring manager was on vacation for two weeks. The interview itself was a 25-minute Zoom call with the hiring manager and their subordinate. They did most of the talking during the call.

Confirmed questions2 questions

My interview experience at O'Connor Davies was one of the most pleasant recruiting experiences I have had to date. I started with a phone screening where I was asked to describe my professional experiences and why I wanted to join their tax department. Two days later, I had an on-site interview with two Managers. They asked basic fit questions, no technical ones, and then HR gave me an office tour. I got the offer in less than a week.
