The interview process had 2 virtual back-to-back interview sessions, each with professionals in the firm. The overall experience with the interviewers was very relaxed, and they strived to have conversations with potential candidates.
My interview experience at Grant Thornton was smooth and professional. The interviewer asked me two core questions: 'Tell me about yourself' and 'What are your strengths and weaknesses'. The whole process was relaxed and well-structured. After answering the questions, the interviewer took the time to explain the internship details clearly, including the allowance, MC policy, and the timeline for the result. I really appreciated how organized and respectful the whole process was.
