Application procedure - How can you prepare for a long life together?

The selection process in principle consists of 3 interview rounds and/or a business case.

Part of the application procedure also includes an (online) assessment and a pre-employment screening. Due to laws and regulations and because EY (and in some cases its clients) sets high standards for the reliability and integrity of its employees, every new employee is screened. Depending on the job level, the pre-employment screening may consist of the following components: Certificate of Conduct (VOG) or—if a VOG cannot be requested in the Netherlands—a Criminal Background Check from the country where you currently live or have lived for the past five years, integrity questionnaire, verification of ID, diplomas and/or work experience, and consultation of the central insolvency register.
