FAQ

1. What is the graduate recruitment process of Baker Tilly Hong Kong?

The recruitment process for fresh graduates may vary slightly from year to year, but the general procedure is as follows:

1. Send a completed application form with a covering letter and résumé by email or by post on or before 31 March of each year.
2. Selected applicants will be invited to take the Written Aptitude Test between April and July. Short-listed applicants will be invited for a group interview during the same period.
3. Offers will be made in August and successful applicants may expect to commence in October.

We receive over a thousand applications each year, and so unfortunately we are unable to send a written reply to all applicants. Should you fail to hear from us by 15 July, you may deem your application to have been unsuccessful.
