I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at EY (Winnipeg, MB) in Oct 2021
Interview
Not live interviews, multiple videos takes, and easy questions. Overall fluent experience and led to a round of zoom interviews. Questions were done through the application hirevue. Emails are sent beforehand and this portion is mandatory for getting an in person interview.

Question 1
One question they asked me was what was one time where I had to make a decision with conflicting sources of information.
Started with an online application, submitting a CV and filling out a short questionnaire, followed by an online test. After that I got invited to an in-person interview in two parts. One was a group work on a case study done with other candidates, followed by individual interviews with a member of the team.

Question 1
X firm has lost 15% of profits this year. Devise a plan to return to pre-crash levels in 5 years.
- Self-intro (in Cantonese)
- Group Case discussion (about business strategies of a shoe brand) (in around 45 mins)
- Group Presentation (in English)
- Q&A (1 question in Mandarin)
The EY interview was professional, structured, and engaging. Interviewers were well-prepared, asked thoughtful questions, and clearly explained the role and firm culture. The conversation felt respectful and substantive, leaving a strong impression of EY’s people-focused, collaborative environment overall and welcoming.
