I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at PwC (Nashville, TN) in Aug 2021
Interview
Started with a phone screen with HR to see why I was interested/if I'm serious about interviewing. Week later an interview was setup with a Manager. Two weeks later I had final round of interviews with Director and Partner. Received my offer a week later.
Overall a great process. Know about the group you are applying with, display professionalism, show a knowledge of workplace etiquette and be ready to show enthusiasm about the role. The rest can be taught at this level.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at PwC
Interview
4 interview: 1 screening, 1 case, 2 behavioral. The case study is fairly open-ended. You need to go in with a basic understanding of business concepts, but you won't be quizzed on anything. The 2 behavioral are casual conversations. They are mainly looking for logic/reasoning skills, communication, and confidence. The hardest thing is getting an interview. I was lucky to have an employee referral.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Describe a recent business transaction in the news.
4 rounds for lateral hires. The candidate must be well versed in the domain they are applying for as question will be pertaining to those. The interview should be okay if you are prepared
The interview process as a whole was conversational in nature and did not touch on any technical areas. Significant prior knowledge or experiences were not the priority. Not difficult overall.
