Hi Amelia. We'd be looking for you to demonstrate your motivation to join EY as well as the particular service line day you apply for. Practice your answer on video, as this will be a video recorded question. Practice numerical reasoning tests as well!

Hi Becca, Ok, that's great; thank you very much! Is there anything we can do in preparation for the job simulation aside from practicing our answers on video? Many thanks

We don't currently have a deadline of applications for Discover EY - we're now closed for Discover EY - Women in Strategy and Transactions so you can apply to either Black Heritage in Business, Women in Assurance or Women in Tax

Hi there, how long does it usually take for us to be able to apply to another role after failing one of the programs?

Hi Amelia - for the job simulation, the biggest piece of advice is to answer honestly and be yourself. there aren't any right or wrong answers - you will be given scenarios and asked to answer based on how you'd naturally respond to certain situations. nothing to prepare for, just be yourself!
