I applied via Recruitment Consulltant and was interviewed in Nov 2024. There was 1 interview round.

Round 1 - Case Study 

I never imagined such kind of environment in EY that simply reschedule the interview without any reason probably interviewer was in mood of Friday finally she ready to schedule the interview on Tuesday, which she joined late and didn't start the camera, seems she is just doing formality on name of interview process.
Interviewer hardly any proper knowledge about project management, data center migration process, risk mitigation plans etc, once she failed to evaluate all these she asked me to stop and started asking directly from PMP book based question which is more into from some book or online source.
