What would be the best way to prepare for cases when applying for an associate technology consultancy position?

Hi Chiara, Do you mean the case studies we would present you with during the recruitment process?

Yes exactly!

And for an entry level position within technology risk, what would be the essential skills you would look at?

HI Chiara. For Technology Risk, I would say the ability to understand the different processes and systems of the clients we work with is the most important thing. Therefore, I would say people skills are something that is extremely important - we spend a lot of our time having meetings (normally in person, although now obviously virtually) with application and process owners, and having good relationships with them can make our job a lot easier in terms of being provided with the information which we need :)

Great! thank you so much.

I have another question regarding the number of positions at EY. Some Big 4's have already decided to have a limited amount of hires this year due to the Covid-19 situation. Is this also the case at EY?

Hi Chiara, thanks for your question - EY are working on a business as usual basis regarding our student recruitment

Thank you so much!
