The application process consists of 1) phone screen with a recruiter; 2) phone screen with a senior designer; 3) on-site interview with 4 designers in the team. I applied through Accenture career site. The recruiter A reach out to me a week later to schedule a phone screen, I send her my schedule and waited for another week. Then recruiter B reach out after one month saying that they were very busy and blamed me for not following up. I was finally able to schedule a phone screen, with recruiter C after another week. The first phone screen was pretty straightforward, with some behavioral questions. One week later, I was able to get the second phone screening with a senior designer. However, the interviewer completely forgot the scheduled time and I had to reach out to him directly to re-arrange another phone screen. I walked through my portfolio and was asked with some questions regarding my design process etc. I was finally able to get the on-site interview in the next week. The on-site interview lasted for 2.5 hrs and I met with 4 designers, and they don't seem much interested in my projects. Overall I had a similar experience to that written by others on Glassdoor: extremely unprofessional and disorganized. The recruiters often send emails during the night and sometimes do not even reply to my email.

My experience is similar to that noted by others on Glassdoor - disorganized, unprofessional, and frankly, a waste of time. Again, like others, the recruiter completely missed the first called scheduled with me and was late for the rescheduled call. I had to follow-up multiple times to push the process forward as the recruiter kept forgetting to follow-up on her own. I was finally scheduled for an on-site interview (a week before the apprenticeship was supposed to begin) and did not hear back until a month later and several emails (although I was told that I'd hear a decision within a week). I was shocked that the interview process was extended to so close to the supposed start-date of the apprenticeship - did they expect people to up and move their lives in a week? - but also by how disorganized the recruiter was throughout the entire process. In the end, I wondered if the apprenticeship program even ran as planned or was delayed as a result of poor planning and coordination.
