I applied through college or university. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at PwC (Boston, MA) in Sep 2016
Interview
I applied through my college. Soon after I got an email saying that I was selected for an interview which came with an invitation for a dinner with employees near my college. I highly recommend going to this - you will probably meet your interviewer! After the 1st round I was quickly invited for a 2nd interview "virtually", then two days later I received my offer.

Q: Tell me about x experience
Very basic behavioral questions in the first interview it lasted about 45 minutes. Second interview was also all behavioral and lasted about 20 minutes.
One individual zoom manager interview
+ one partner group interview
(one partner+one manager : three candidates)
Overall quite nice atmosphere
Partner in is like coffee chat
lots of casual chat
Domande molto tecniche anche sulla contabilità, ma probabilmente non era proprio una posizione adatta a me che non ho studiato economia. Il partner era molto pungente, il senior manager invece era una persona gentile e tranquilla.
El proceso fue muy bueno y amable desde el primer contacto, siempre fueron claros y resolvieron mis dudas. Asignaron mis pruebas, entrevistas y documentación a entregar conforme a las fechas acordadas.
