Very fair and laid back and it was a lot more personal. Unlike other accounting firms Armanino wants to see you as a human being, not a work horse. Overall it was a great experience and I would definitely recommend Armanino to a friend.

I applied through a student ambassador at my school. I was asked to come in for an interview. The first interview was just a conversation with one person and felt very laid back. The next interview consisted of an office tour, three 30 minute back-to-back interviews with different people, and finally a lunch with 2 staff accountants. The overall process went very smoothly. Everyone was friendly and welcoming. I did not receive an offer, but my overall experience was positive.

I attended Meet the Firms and talked to the recruiter and staff. I was contacted later for a phone interview, which was about 15 minutes. The recruiter just asked about my interest and what I was looking for. I got an email a day later for the second round interview at their office. The first half hour was introduction and office tour. Each candidate got assigned a helper. After that there were 3 interviews, 30 min each back to back, with partners and managers. After the interview, the staffs took me out to lunch. Overall, everyone was really nice. I didn't get the offer in the end because there was only 1 position available but many applied. However, it was still a great experience.
