I applied online. I interviewed at EY (New York, NY) in Feb 2013
Interview
4 hours of GMAT questions. I was prepared for this but I thought it was a bit too much for an Internship that is very low paid. I dont know if anyone bothered to check my answers, but they let me know that I passed. After that the HR contacted me and asked to wait until some Partner is in town. Since I already had a job, I didnt bother her anymore, nor she ever got back at me. Very unprofessional.
There were two interviews back-to-back, similar questions but just asked by two different people from two different departments of finance that I was applying to. It was overall a good experience but felt very competitive.
