      No offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Loughborough University

      Interview

      "It was a multi-step process! First, they had me do a practical assessment on Excel to test my formulas and VLOOKUP skills. Right after that, we did the interview. They went over my accounting experience and education history, and then asked some technical bookkeeping questions. like how I would record a basic transaction if the company bought an item with cash.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      The interview was pretty comprehensive. They started off by asking about my overall accounting experience and what I handled in my previous roles. Then, they moved into my educational history and how my studies prepared me for this position. After the background stuff, they asked a few technical accounting questions to test my skills. for example, they asked me to walk them through how to record a basic transaction in the books, like what the journal entry would look like if the company purchased an item using cash.
