I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Accenture (New York, NY) in Nov 2019
Interview
I applied to "Accenture Technology Software Engineer - City University of New York". It was an application for CUNY Students.
I made it to the final round interviews. They sent an email containing tips for their case interview. I watched and studied case interviews, but the interview I got was completely different.
In a case interview, you are given a problem and you are supposed to give an analysis of the problem and describe the possible solutions. The interview is supposed to look like a conversation.
What happened was the interviewer handed me a sheet with a problem and told me to write answers to the questions at the bottom. Then, he said he is gonna answer some emails on his laptop. After I finished writing my answers, I tried to do my best in this awkward interview.
Didn't get an offer. This happened in Nov 2019 and I am still somewhat salty.
