I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at PwC in Mar 2008
Interview
I would consider it as three round session. First round was kind of on campus interview.Questions were very generic like"Tell me something about youself"?," Can you work in team?", Have you ever had conflict with your superiors , if yes how did you handled the situation"
Second round was like a informal dinner. With 4 people on the table with 4 other interviewees. Generic questions like how do you feel like being here and which places you like to go to drink and eat.
Third round was tuff one with 4 people interviewing me(Some other associates had 3). Detailed question based on what you have in resume(If it is a technical position)
Overall response was good.People answered your questions about the firm and offer.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How did you handled conflicts with your supervisor at work?
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at PwC (McLean, VA) in Jul 2008
Interview
Had an initial phone conversation where the recruiter asked what I was looking for. I was coming from an engineering manufacturing company where I had a background in Continuous Improvement and Supply Chain Management. Followed by an in-person interview with two senior associates, and a manger. After that initial round of interviews, I was called the next day to set up a final interview with a Managing Director. Usually they have you interview with Managers and a Director and the final round with a Partner, but I guess this team was different.
I received a call the next business day with a verbal offer where I negotiated for a sign-on bonus. I received the written offer later that afternoon and accepted the offer.
I applied through college or university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at PwC in Nov 2008
Interview
Very timely in responding to candidate post-interview. Very relaxed during on-grounds interview. Second round at the office involved a series of presentations, informal lunch meetings and one on one interviews with employees from different levels. Work culture seemed comfortably conservative. My advice would be to practice behavioial questions about leadership experience and work habits.
