I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at BDO (Birmingham, England) in Mar 2019
Interview
An initial application process, online tests (easier than usual), video interview, then final assessment centre. Contrary to their preparation email, there was no interview at the AC. Final decisions seemed to be made entirely on a group exercise which had no applicability to Audit. Apprentices and Interns were assessed together, which was a little inappropriate, and oddly the apprentices were interviewed instead of the Intern applicants. My application was also lost, twice.
Background part question is common and easy to answer such as why company and why job. The interviewers are kind and nice. They also introduce the company culture and their own experience to you. The whole experience is great.
Pretty nice, friendly people and mostly behavior questions not very challenging. Pay is average audit salary. Good to learn a bit more about the company. Feel like mostly introvert professionals in the team

Question 1
3 whys like why do you want to work in BDO or audit
Il colloquio è suddiviso in 3 steps: 1)colloquio di gruppo dove si svolge un caso studio; 2) colloquio conoscitivo con l'HR dove vengono fatte alcune domande di inglese ma molto basilari; 3) colloquio tecnico con manager dove mi aveva chiesto di svolgere degli esercizi di partita doppia, nozioni in generale su economia aziendale (ad esempio, avviamento ecc)
