And with the video interview, is it just your voice that is recorded or webcam as well so do you need to wear a suit?


Its webcam and yeah you have to act like you're at an actual interview. Eye contact (with the webcam) is important. I had a lot of difficulty getting on to the link and it was really slow for me.

Passed the numerical, now for the critical reasoning. After the results of that test and if you pass, do you have like 5 days to do the video interview or is it on a set day?
Any news on whether you passed your video interview. Passed mine like a month ago and still waiting for an assessment day date.

Im still waiting to hear if i've passed the video interview and its been nearly 2 weeks
They were slightly challenging ngl. You just got to prepare for questions about skills that will be required in the role. I applied to London.

I have just been invited to do my video interview, are there any questions specifically about BDO as a company? Like shouldn't I look up more about their history etc or is it all skill based?

Yes it's audit, and I have no idea what score it was as I was informed that I got through on the phone. The feedback given to me was for the the internal and external customer question and that's it. And yes for London there was only one day on my link, so I had to click that.

I applied back in November and haven't received no AC date.

What sort of feedback did they give you on that question?
