I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at PwC (Chicago, IL) in Mar 2015
Interview
First round was a phone interview. There recruiter mainly asked me questions from my resume and 3 easy behavioral questions. My second round was in the Chicago office. This consisted of 3 interviews - 2 behavioral and 1 case. An overview of the case was given 48 hours in advance, and the day of the interview, you are given questions and you have 45 minutes to come up with a presentation. I presented to one interviewer - we were both sitting down so less pressure. The two behavioral were very enjoyable. I think they had a set of behavioral questions, but we ended up veering away from them and discussing other more, conversational topics. I don't think there is a standard set of questions we need to answer, just more of a potential list if the conversation doesn't flow. Overall, good interview and cool office.
Generally positive, but due to change in direction they chose to cut down number of job offers. First was OA, then Video interview, then Virtual AC. Consisting of 2 1 to 1 interviews, group task, individual task.
Der Prozess der Bewerbung beinhaltet zwei Interviews. Eines der Interviews war fachlich das andere Interview war eher persönlich. Beide Interviews super angenehm und nett gestaltet. Die Interviews werden von unterschiedlichen Personen geführt, sodass eine Art Unabhängigkeit vorhanden ist
