Grant Thornton Advisory Associate interview questions

I spoke with a Grant Thornton representative at my university's career fair in early September and applied online via my university's career portal immediately after. My application for an interview was accepted and my interview was held in early October on my campus. The night before the interview there was a reception for candidates at a local restaurant. This was a great opportunity to meet with current employees and learn more about their current work and just network in general. The university recruiter, who organized the event, was very friendly and made sure that you were able to speak with your interviewers at the reception. As such, I was able to form an initial connection that I think really helped in my interview the next day. The actual interview was one hour long; the first 30 minutes were with one interviewer and the last 30 minutes were with another. Both of my interviewers were very senior-level people with GT and so it was little intimidating, but having met them the night before certainly helped me feel more comfortable during the interview. The questions were behavioral style, but the interview felt very conversational and the flow from one question to the next was natural. The on-campus interview was the only interview they conducted (counting as both first and second round). About 2 weeks after the interview, I received a phone call from my recruiter informing me that I got the offer.

As a campus recruit, the process involved submitting a resume online, two back-to-back 30 minute interviews and an optional dinner the night before interviews. Overall, it was a positive experience. I had the opportunity to ask plenty of questions.
