BDO early careers - audit 2022

Congratulations! I’m in the process of applying is it a long application time line ?

Hi could you explain the application process? I did the virtual assesment what comes next? Also I applied for Southampton Audit as well so we may see each other!

Hi! Regarding the virtual assessment do you mean the assessment centre with other candidates?

I mean the virtual assesment which contains the verbal reasoning and maths test as well as three video questions

Congrats!! Could you give me any tips on the AC. I have one next week for audit and was wondering how your AC was. What was the presentation on?

Hi, the AC was really straight forward and you will be given a prep call beforehand. On the day, you will be introduced to everyone and basically talk a little about yourself too so you get to know everyone. The layout is very well prepared as you'll receive a timetable beforehand and you will just need to click on each link to enter teams and they'll be there

Group tasks consisted of 4 people including myself. Assessors will turn their cameras and mic off and will assess throughout the task. I mainly pushed myself out there - my group was a little shy at first so I kinda led the group but we came to an agreement in the end - they assess your communication skills. It was 40 mins but we finished in like 20 because we communicated very well so we added in other details for the remaining 20 mins so make sure you're very active

In the presentation, you'll be asked to present a company to an assessor, not too sure if I can go into anymore details as I have signed a confidentiality form

Just make sure you're active and taking notes during activities. You'll be given a prep call so if you have any questions, make sure you voice them

Good luck!
