RWS Group Interview Questions
& Process

The interview was structured and professional. It started with an HR screening where they asked about my background and career goals. Then, there was a technical round that covered accounting concepts like journal entries, bank reconciliations, prepaid expenses, and the difference between accrual and cash basis. The interviewer also threw in some scenario-based questions about month-end close, GL reconciliations, and AP/AR processes. The last round was mainly to check for cultural fit, how I handle problems, and my interest in the job. Overall, it was a clear and well-organized process that gave a good impression of the company.

The hiring process is pretty simple, but it can change a lot depending on the kind of data you're working with. For instance, if the interviews are about quantitative data, they might focus more on stats and numbers. But if it's about qualitative data, they might ask about your own experiences and what you think. It's important because each data type needs its own way of doing things to really get the info you need and understand it well.

The interview process started off on a bad note with HR wasting my time. The initial contact forgot our scheduled meeting and I had to remind them. They were out of office that day but promised to call the next day, which they didn't do until I followed up again. They then said they were too busy and a colleague would call me instead. The second person did call and the conversation went well. They mentioned a 1-hour test would be part of the second interview, with two more interviews remaining. I agreed, but during the second interview, they sent the test and clarified it actually takes about 2 hours, not 1 hour. This lack of transparency and the initial recruiter's attitude made me lose interest in the company. The selection process is unnecessarily long, considering most candidates will spend 2 hours on the test only to be rejected, and still have two more interviews ahead. I wish the company was more considerate of candidates' time.

The interview was nice and helpful. It was done online so it felt pretty chill. Most questions were straightforward and just checked if I met the job requirements. The interviewers were cool and professional, and they gave a lot of details about the company and what the job involves. We talked more about past experiences and personal qualities instead of technical stuff. I got to ask a bunch of questions about the job and how the team works. Overall, it was a good experience and gave me a solid feel for the company culture.
