The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at PwC (Atlanta, GA) in Oct 2018
Interview
Received notification by email that I got a first round interview a couple weeks after application closed. There was a pre-interview dinner the night before the interviews where we had the opportunity to meet some of the people who worked there. The interviews the next day consisted of two 30 minute interviews one being behavioral and one being a case which was a 1 page scenario with discussion questions afterwards. I did not receive a 2nd round.
3 rounds - behavioural is key, gotta vibe with the interviewers. Case study is a lot easier than other consulting firms, but still prep for it. It's a great firm to work for really.

Question 1
Why do you want to be a consultant, what does a consultant do in your words, why do you want to work here, what would recent colleges say about you.
Two 45 minute interviews back to back. One was behavioral, and one was a case. The behavioral one was intense, with about 12 questions. The case interview was better, it was more interviewer led. Overall, the people were really nice.
