The process took 6 days. I interviewed at BDO (London, England)
Interview
I applied for experienced hire. The interview was mostly technical (reading financial statements and designing audit strategies), with a Q&A section towards the end. Overall quite standard and not too hard if you had audit experience.
It's a straightforward audit case study and fit discussion with a Partner. The team is trying to understand your understanding of going concern risk and how you see your career progressing within the organisation.
