I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Accenture (London, England) in Feb 2014
Interview
Fairly long application form, then 40-minute phone interview, and finally face-to-face HR and skills-based interviews (1 hour each)
The face-to-face HR interview was basically a repeat of the phone interview, and I didn't get any programming-related questions at all (not even in the skills-based interview). I'd recommend brushing up on Accenture as a whole (including the difference between ACG and ATS), as well as knowing the general software development life-cycle like the back of your hand. In addition, a few more specific methodologies (like Agile and spiral) would be pretty good to know.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Comparing the Agile development model to the waterfall model. What are the advantages/disadvantages of each approach?
I applied through university. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Accenture (Maynooth) in Sep 2012
Interview
After submitting my CV through our placement co-ordinator in university, I was selected for an interview. This interview was with a manager and senior manager and consisted of a basic run down of my CV, where I was asked to explain particular jobs/skills and how I felt they would be relevant to working with Accenture.
