Preparation for the Ernst and Young assessment interviews isn’t just a good idea. In
fact, if you view it lightly and without need of preparation you will unfortunately be
doomed to failure. The interview is long and probing and without requisite preparation
you won’t be able to do yourself justice. Although it does start out with some light
hearted conversation to put you at ease, this doesn’t mean it will be a walk in the
park.

Ernst & Young Partner Interview
In this approximately hour long interview there are two different styles of interviews. It can
either be a conversational interview walking you through your CV and application form or it
can be more business based. For such an interview you will be asked a leading question to
do with the business world at the moment and how you think Ernst and Young would deal
with it. This will lead into a discussion with the partner about the case. Make sure you are fully
aware of the services that EY provide because it is very easy to be caught out. You will need
to act in a way that represents Ernst & Young during this interaction and it is as if you are
having a board room discussion with a senior partner discussing a future case in the
company. It is impossible to know which of the two you will get for the simple reason that you
won’t know who your interviewer will be until the assessment day itself.
Preparing for the Ernst & Young Interview is no easy matter. Apart from actually having to do
the research into the company, you also have to reach back into your past to find answers to
all of these questions. Moreover, who knows if the answers you prepare are up to scratch? At
