I’m interviewing for EY TS (FDD) tomorrow. Would be nice if they just let us transfer internally without everyone dragging their feet.

When I interviewed there the case study was a few pages of background / narrative on a target and a few pages of financials. Come at it from the perspective of what should a buyer be thinking about in terms of normalized profitability for one time items / meaningful changes in the business and if there are any significant non operating liabilities on or off the balance sheet that the seller should retain or be handled as a dollar for dollar reduction in purchase price

Also, there is a case study

Recently transferred to the group internally, be prepared for the case study, which is not too bad if you’re from audit and familiar with FS.

PWC 1- how detailed are the case study question? What are the looking for exactly.

PwC 2. Interview with Evy and then tell her you want to stay. But you don’t want audit. If you are a high performer they will make it happen. I would talk to hr

Probably a party. Coincides with New Partner announcement day

More technical questions than your audit interview for sure but nothing unreasonable. There might be an excel test but you should be competent if you’re coming out of audit.

Are you traveling during the pandemic or have client interactions been virtual? Lastly, if you are a consultant here, are you on billable hours? My current consulting role is not - so this would be new.
