Behavioral
First, I had an interview with the office recruiter, and then a second interview with the partner who runs the office. Most of the questions were behavioral, focusing on whether I'd be a good fit with the current staff rather than on tax skills or knowledge. I sensed some hesitation when I asked about staff turnover. When I spoke to one of the staff members about it, they mentioned that most people leave for better opportunities elsewhere, which seemed like a red flag. Generally, everyone was very professional.

Behavioral Technical
I sent my resume and cover letter in online and then HR got in touch within like 2 weeks. Had a phone interview that was about 20 minutes and mostly behavioral questions. Then I had an in-person interview about 2 weeks after that. I met with the principal and it was a really comfortable meeting, they were super friendly and easy to chat with. That interview was about an hour long and they asked a bunch of different questions.
Confirmed questions1 question
- About how many years would you estimate it takes to be fully confident leading an audit engagement independently from beginning to end?

Behavioral Other
I applied online and got a call for a phone interview. It was a straightforward chat about me and my career goals, not too heavy on behavioral questions. Then, I had a meeting at the office with the HR person, similar to the phone interview, lasting about 1.5 hours. The final step was a casual lunch with the partner and the same HR person, which felt like a personality test. Overall, it was a positive experience.
Confirmed questions1 question
- I had ample opportunity to ask my own questions, though I felt slightly unprepared for them.
