* Be prepared
      Learn as much as you can about Ernst & Young, who we are, our services and our strategic direction. Make sure you can articulate how your strengths and career goals align with ours, and why you think you’ll succeed in our organization.
    * Be proactive
      Prepare a list of questions to ask your interviewer(s) so you can assess whether Ernst & Young is the right place to launch your career. Ask us questions about our organization, our clients, the opportunities we can offer you and what you can expect from us.
    * Be yourself
      Try to relax and remember that we’re interested in the real you. When preparing, it’s helpful to think about how you’d like to communicate certain points but avoid over-rehearsing, as it may come across as impersonal.
    * Be professional
      Take pride in your presentation. We will be looking for professionalism in how you dress, how you speak and what you tell us about yourself.
    * Be punctual
      Arrive at least five minutes early and if – for reasons out of your control – you’re running late, call your interviewer and explain why.

 Be On Time
Be on time for the interview. On time means five to ten minutes early. If need be, take some time to drive to the office ahead of time so you know exactly where you are going and how long it will take to get there.
Stay Calm
During the job interview try to relax and stay as calm possible. Take a moment to regroup. Maintain eye contact with the interviewer. Listen to the entire question before you answer and pay attention - you will be embarrassed if you forget the question!
Show What You Know
Try to relate what you know about the company when answering questions.  When discussing your career accomplishments match them to what the company is looking for.
Follow Up
Always follow-up with a thank you note reiterating your interest in the position. If you interview with multiple people send each one a thank you note.
