The procedure consists of an assessment, 1 or 2 interviews, and a partner interview. After a good match, a job offer will follow.

Part of the application procedure is 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 include the following components: Certificate of Good Conduct (VOG) or - if no VOG can be requested in the Netherlands - Criminal Background Check from the country where you currently live or have lived in the past five years, integrity questionnaire, verification of ID, diplomas, and/or work experience, and consulting the central insolvency register.

EY refers to the global organization, and may refer to one or more, of the member firms of Ernst & Young Global Limited, each of which is a separate legal entity. Ernst & Young Global Limited, a UK company limited by guarantee, does not provide services to clients.
