Next Steps...

The next step from here is your application. On your application you will need to indicate the business area you wish to work and train in.

The application form

To ensure that everyone is assessed in a fair and consistent way, we ask all candidates to apply online at www.bdoni.com/careers/graduate_careers.asp. Applying online is the first stage of our selection process and offers you the opportunity to edit your answers as you go, or to save a draft application and return to it at any stage.

Please bear in mind the following when completing the form:

Questions within the application form are your first opportunity to demonstrate how your skills match our key criteria. When answering these questions, try to use recent examples and highlight your own specific role and the skills you used and gained within the situation.

After your application has been processed you may be asked to attend a presentation evening led by our staff of an interview with members of our team.

From October to December each year we take part in the accountancy milkround process governed by the Institute of Chartered Accountants in Ireland. The Institute have established rules for the milkround that are designed to make the process fair for both applicants and recruiting firms. The rules deal with a variety of issues including the procedures and timescales for the acceptance and processing of applications, the timing of interviews and job offers to candidates and deadlines by which time these offers should be accepted or rejected. These rules must be followed by all accountancy firms recruiting graduate trainees between October and December each year.

The closing date for applications as part of the milkround process this year is 31 October 2008. After this date we will continue to accept online applications but these will not be processed until the milkround process concludes in January 2009."
