I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at PwC (Johannesburg) in Dec 2020
Interview
Obviously apply online then got a 1:1 interview with HR. They just wanted to know about me so they asked a few behavioural questions (conflict, time-management and prioritisation, leadership, pressure etc) and a few other questions based on my cv. The interview was 30 minutes long. Then I got a second interview with a panel of 4 people after a month or so. It was very chilled and conversational. They asked what motivates me, what consulting is, whether or not i read business news and where and what have i read recently and yeah. Then there was a case study.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
1. Tell us about yourself
2. What motivates you?
3. Behavioural questions involved conflict, time-management, leadership, etc
4. What is consulting?
Pretty straightfoward. Lots of case studies and some were harder than others. Some of the partner interviews they seemed uninterested so the vibe was off a bit. Also over zoom.
Standard case interview - 3 rounds: one behavioral, one case, one with partner. The case is s standard consulting case. The behavioral and partner interviews are standard as well. The case interview can prepped for with standard management consulting case reviews.
I applied online. I interviewed at PwC (Ámsterdam) in Dec 2025
Interview
Na mijn sollicitatie duurde het drieenhalve week voordat ik een reactie kreeg. Omdat dit net voor de feestdagen was, begrijp ik dat het wat langer duurde. Daarna verliep de hele procedure echter zeer vlot. De assessment vond ik op sommige onderdelen pittig, maar zeker haalbaar. De gesprekken waren prettig en ik merkte dat er echt goed naar me geluisterd werd en er werd goed doorgevraagd.
