I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Grant Thornton
Interview
Very welcoming. I was nervous, but I never felt intimidated by the personnel. Instead, they were straightforward, genuinely interested, and very comforting about the firm. Like most public accounting firms, they are selling themselves to you just as much as you are trying to sell yourself to them. So long as you have a good resume and can hold a conversation, you're prepared for a successful interview.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
For me, the hardest questions are always those asking if I have any questions for the firm. It's hard to come up with someone unique and not something everyone asks.
The interview was very genuine and felt extremely professional. I had some difficult questions but they were very relevant to the job and my experience. The interviewee was also wonderful.
