I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at EY (Cochin) in Mar 2013
Interview
1. I had 5 levels of interview.
2. The first section was a telephonic interview with the HR. This was the initial screening where the priority is given to the Communication Skills and the candidate's interest in joining the company.
3. The second level was with the Team Lead and this was technical oriented and will be related to the process. He explained all the process details and this was a new project Group ID. Interviews were going on since 6 months for just 2 positions. But none had been selected till then.
4. After this session, the Manager and the Assistant Director will have the 3rd and 4th sessions respectively. There they will be testing the candidate's attitude and interpersonal skills.
5. I cleared all the 4 levels of interview and the recruiters were really happy with my performance.
6. the final round is the Client interview. this is the toughest of them all since they will be taking the candidate through different levels. Three clients were involved in the interview and they were from US. They asked lots of questions including technical questions relating to LDAP, JAVA, Javascript, SQL, MySQL and many more. I answered all of them without fail and then they will move forward with very tricky behavioral type of questions.
7. I performed well and i was selected as the 1st recruit for the new process Group ID.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
You said EY is one of your dream companies. So will you stay with EY for a very long time? If not then what could be the reason you might leave EY?
The process was relatively straightforward and moved quickly (total time was less than 2 weeks). It consisted of:
(1) Online application - submitting CV, cover letter etc. via the career portal
(2) Online assessment - takes about 1 hour, some quantitative questions, questions about behaviours etc.
(3) Phone call with recruiter
(4) In-person interview - less "formal", more conversational

Question 1
Tell me about yourself
*tip: be prepared with questions to ask the interviewer
Overall good experience. 2 rounds of interview. Got to know results in 1 day. Smooth process. Interview was scheduled online. Three interviewers were present. Covered technical questions and skills i know.
the application process is starting from looking in the LinkedIn. After that, they refer to the EY website. From this you can see the requirement for the job applicant. Depends on the role whether the company expect quite experience on organization and academic. The most important they put a highlight is being active on organization which they know how social you are.
