Me postulé a través de una facultad o universidad. El proceso tomó 4 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en PwC (San Jose, CA) en oct 2011
Entrevista
The are two rounds of interviews held at the Company office site. Usually the interviews are held by a head recruiter and/or managers and higher position personnel.
There is one 1:1 interview during the first round, which lasts about 30 min. The questions are mostly behavior based and related to the resume.
Before the second round, there is a pre-interview dinner held usually by staff and seniors. The second round consists of Company overview presentation, three 1:1 interviews, and a lunch. The interviews last about 30-45 min each, and all have behavior based and resume related questions. At least one interviewer will be a partner. After the second round interview, candidates will usually hear back by the end of the same day for an offer.
Generally, everyone is very friendly (probably the most friendly employees among the Big4) and the office is clean.
Advice:
1) For on-campus recruiting, speak to the recruiters as much as possible at school organized events. Also, ensure to attend PwC organized events, and speak to recruiters and anyone above manager level. Recruiters will pick out who they remember when selecting first round interview candidates.
2) Always send thank you e-mails to interviewers after the interviews (usually within the same day), since not sending one could be detrimental during the recruiting process.

Entrevista
Immediately after submitting your application you will be invited to the first stage, an online assessment involving maths and logic problems, similar to other companies.
About a month later I was notified of the second stage, an online virtual assessment centre. The VAC lasted about 4 hrs and has three parts: a group interview where we discuss a fictional consulting problem, an individual task writing a report based on given information, and a one-to-one interview that mainly focuses on your experience in the group session, along with some motivational/behavioural questions.
The third stage is a one-to-one in-person partner interview. Before your interview they’ll invite you to a coaching call where they tell you some things that may come up and how to prepare. They’ll also give you some idea about how you did in the VAC and what you can improve. At the actual interview, the style really depends on your interviewer and it felt more like a coffee chat. Although my advice is to study some PwC values and your own motivation beforehand. The interview was nice and I was notified about my result in only about 3 weeks.
lot of stages of interview. i need to take a test. then go through the first stage of interview. then 2nd interview is quite tough as they the questions are more very high thinking level which i am underprepared. but it was a great experience.
The process was well-structured and professional overall. It included behavioral questions, discussions about audit/accounting concepts, and questions focused on teamwork and problem-solving. Interviewers were friendly and made the conversation comfortable. The process was moderately challenging but fair, with clear communication throughout.
