I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at BDO (Melbourne) in May 2024
Interview
Was very relaxed and friendly I was happy with the overall experience. It involed 2 interviews and assessement centres. I was interviews by two people in each interview which I prefered to just one on one interviews. The HR invovled was also very helpful.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about yourself and why you want to work here
First round was video interview with questions that had a time limit to prepare for. Mostly understanding interest in the role and understanding of the firm. Prep for shorter responses because of the time limit, limited retakes.
Group Interview on the assessment day following an 1v1 Individual Interview with a partner and a manager. The whole interview process was quick, 30 minutes for the group and 20 minutes for the individual one.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at BDO
Interview
It was an interview for a tax grad role. They asked me simple questions like about my uni experience, etc. Partner was also present coz the team was small. He was looking for someone with genuine interest in tax.
