I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at BDO (San Diego, CA) in May 2024
Interview
The manager and tax partner interviewed me. 30 minutes each, super chill and not too hard of questions. Got lunch and a tour after too. Everyone there is cool and I enjoyed my interview experience.

Question 1
What are things you look for in a team? (something like that)
Interview process is application online. One month later, I got an email from the recruiter to connect with me for a 20-30 virtual interview. The virtual interview was easy as it was to get to know me more of what area of practice do I want to take for the internship. I was offered a schedule of interview that took place two weeks after the virtual interview, and the interview process was easy as it was assessing response to the behavioral questions and might ask situational scenario questions. After a few days later, I got the offer.
I had two back to back virtual interviews. They touched on my resume and asked me behavioral questions. They were very friendly and it felt very natural -- like a conversation.

Question 1
Tell me about a time you completed a task despite it being challenging.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at BDO (Detroit, MI) in Nov 2024
Interview
Easy, one phone screening and then one interview with two people separately. They asked very basic and common interview questions. I would say do research prior to the interview and be prepared to ask them questions that you actually want to know the answer to. Do not ask questions just to ask.
