Recruitment procedure – How can you prepare for a long life together?

After receiving and selecting your CV, we will schedule a brief 15-30 minute introduction via MS Teams. If your motivation and ambitions align with the vacancy, we will arrange a first interview with the recruiter and a team member. If the outcome of the interview is positive, you will be invited to an online assessment. The recruiter will then schedule a time to discuss the results with you. Based on this, a second round of interviews may be conducted if necessary.

Due to laws and regulations, and because EY (and in some cases its clients) has high demands on the reliability and integrity of its employees, every new employee will be screened. Depending on your rank the pre-employment screening could contain the following: Certificate of Conduct (in Dutch: VOG) or - if requesting a Dutch VOG is not possible - Criminal Background Check of the country you are currently living or have lived during the last five years, integrity questionnaire, verification of ID, diploma’s and/or work experience and consultation of the Dutch insolvency registry.
