Interesting on the excel assessment. Interviewed with them when I transferred at EY and there wasn’t any technical component, just normal behavioral stuff with 2 or 3 people. Be sure you can succinctly articulate what FDD is and why you want to do it. Beyond that just be relaxed and yourself. When I’m making hiring decisions for FDD - being intelligent, articulate and having a personality are 80% of the equation. We can teach you anything technical, this isn’t rocket science
