I have an upcoming 1.5 hour “live digital video interview” with EY. It’s powered by HireVue, so I’m not sure if I’ll have to respond to scripted questions or talk live with EY team members. Has anyone done anything like this before / have any insight into what this might be? Also, the meeting invitation says that the interview will be recorded.

HireVue does both but I believe EY only does real person interviews.

Please correct me if others have had a different experience

I did a recorded HireVue last year when I applied to EY in college.

God, if it was just responding to scripted questions I’d probably pull out. What kind of disrespectful nonsense is that?

like

Again - id pull out, that’s the most ticky tack you’re not worth our time Ive ever seen.

It's a live chat with EY employees. I have conducted them before. It's basically the same as any in person interviewing with questions being specific to your background and and the role you're applying to.

Honestly, my answer to this is to just ask HR, they are just like you and me. They will tell you the interview format, who you'll be interviewing with, etc. Everything you hear here is speculation

like

We do both. I see value in the pre recorded interviews.

We are doing the interviews that would have been live virtually right now. I just interviewed someone for an experienced senior position the other day on HireVue. They have a set of general questions you can ask during the interviews. I use them, or variations sometimes, however, you can generally tell within the first few minutes if the candidate is decent or not. I normally treat the interview as a conversation and mix the questions in to get a feel for if the person is a good fit or not.

For first round screenings, au actually prefer answering scripted questions that can be recorded and forwarded to hiring manager. This is much better than the typical first round screening interview with an HR recruiter where they add little value to the process. I’ve always doubted they are capable of adequately documenting and relaying my answers to the hiring managers and they typically can’t answer any in-depth questions about the role. The ones I’ve done have had video attached too which, depending on your perspective, can be a good or bad thing. It allows the hiring manager to actually see how you respond (are you confident, do you have executive presence, etc.) but it can also play towards biases.

Hahaha we have to put the word “digital” in everything don’t we?

It’s live w/ team members. Did it earlier this yr

Hi All... URGENTLY NEED some suggestions.

I've got a job offer in australia for 120$ Aud. Pay is good but they reached out to me via LinkedIn now all interviews done. If i accept the offer they will start my visa process. But I couldn't find the company in Google or Glassdoor reviews. It's a new startup kind of consultancy with 10-15 PPL. I can only see few linkedin posts for that company.

Is it advisable to proceed? They're not asking any money from me they are sponsoring for visa. Is it safe

I found a company I was really excited about working at. I applied for the job and went through 5 rounds of interviews. At the end they said I was OVER qualified and they want me for a different position higher up in the company. I was super excited they then had me go through 5 more rounds, 3/5 people were the same. The interviews mostly went "didn't you get the job, I highly recommend you? I'll just put you down as a 10". After those were done they told me I was UNDER qualified. Can't win!

Also all the questions that were asked to me were written coding questions(Write block of code) none were verbal.I could write all answers but none was 100% correct.

At last I asked the interviewer about feedback as in where was I wrong. He said at couple of places and he explained me where was I wrong.

Do you all think I will be rejected?
