A basic behavioral interview. The person interviewing was cordial and positive.
Questions they asked: When did you fail at something? Describe to me a time when you had to change. Tell me about yourself. Why Consulting? (it was an advisory interview) Why Pricewaterhouse Coopers? What are your interests?

Interviewed Nov 2011 (took 4 days)
The first part of the process consisted of an on-campus interview as well as a meet and greet for all the applicants who were accepted into the first round of interviews. Once I was past the first round of interviews, I was invited to the office for more interviews. After that process, I was given an offer.

Interviewed Nov 2011 (took 1 week)
Had a pre-interview night where we met with current PwC partners; it was very informal and a good way to meet your interviewer before the actual interview. The interview itself was very generic. They do their best to make it feel like a conversation. I walked the interviewer through my resume and she asked me specific questions about certain aspects. She invited me to a second round interview during my first interview.
Second round interview is an office visit where you're given a "buddy" to walk you to your interviews with three different people. Also very generic interviews and very conversational.

Interviewed Mar 2011 in Detroit, MI (took 6 weeks)
Responded to a posting, was contacted and had phone interview with a recruiter, second step was a phone interview with national leader, third step was an in-office interview with the HR team in Detroit. People were great, but not smart enough to hire me and my direct competitor experience.

Interviewed Nov 2011 in Los Angeles, CA (took a day)
Got the interview through career center website.
most questions are easy behavior questions, which are easy.
The interview process was actually fun; I never felt nervous.
However, I think they are looking for [people with more experience or exposure to finance.
if you don't have any experience, then it is very unlikely you can get the second round. take as many finance classes as you can.

Interviewed Oct 2010 (took 3 weeks)
The first stage included 4 tests (Verbal, Numerical, English, Accounting). Then I had an interview with a hiring manager, she asked some general questions: about my education, about my teamwork experience, why I decided to be an auditor, why I decided to apply for PwC etc. The third stage consisted of 2 interviews: one with a recruitment manager, one with a director. The questions were similar to the second stage, there was only one or two technical questions.
