Phone interview & case study

Some HLB offices may ask you to participate in a quick phone interview and complete a short case study test.

The inclusion of this step in the recruitment process will be communicated in the job description.

Face-to-face interview

  • If you are successfully shortlisted, depending on your location, you will be invited for an interview.
  • An interview means that we want to get to know you. It is also an opportunity for you to get to know us.
  • At this point, it’s a good idea to start thinking about the reasons why you want to join HLB, which division of the firm you are most interested in and any previous work experience that you have done that could be worth sharing.

Offer of employment

  • The process for accepting an offer will be shared by HR in your interview.
  • HR will outline the steps involved and what is to be expected following the offer.
  • Once you’ve accepted our offer, we’ll give you a start date and discuss the onboarding process.

Welcome & orientation

  • We have designed a program that fully supports your professional development.
  • Our grad and student programs vary from office-to-office. Some of the things we will ensure you have from day one is a welcome orientation, partner introductions, assignment of a mentor, formal induction program and a calendar of upcoming social events.
