PwC Associate Interview Questions & Reviews

Interview Details – Asked about college experiences, prior internships.

Interview Details – Submitted application through campus website and got invited to the interview on campus. Interviewed with a partner from a local office. Overall, the atmosphere was very friendly and inviting, made me feel calm and relaxed. The interviewer asked general questions about my life experiences, we talked about where I grew up and where I worked during school. I moved to United States from a different country and my interviewer previously worked in that area on his assignment so it helped to find a common topic. Interview lasted 30 minutes and later this afternoon I got a call and got an offer.

Interview Details – First round of interview for tax associate in ITS. The interviewers were laid back and be ready to ask questions.

Interview Details – It started with a phone interview with HR for the basics. The first phone interview after that is the one that matters most, It was a phone interview and went over what you do and projects you were on. If you do well here then you should be guarantied an onsite interview.

Once onsite there were no surprise questions or anything from left field, just talk about your work and what you want too do.

Negotiation Details – I was not able to negotiate. I wish I tried harder

Interview Details – HR will run the initial screening, then you will be contacted for the 2nd round of interview, mostly conducted by a peer, a manager or a director, and a partner.

Interview Details – Applied online but then reached out to folks on linkedin. Definitely wouldn't have moved forward without pestering people for a referral

Phone interview -basic questions (strengths and weaknesses, etc),

2nd phone interview- talked to a manager at PwC advisory, also standard questions about academic background, proudest moment, how you deal with multiple projects at one time, your analytical skills,

then

3 rounds on inperson interviews with advisory team members

Standard questions about background, dealing with clients, my knowledge of the industry the advisory position was assigned to, Why PwC?

Did not get offer, but I had to call and email about 10 times to find this out. It's a big company, so this is sadly usually the case- you have to run over many hurdles just to finally hear back from someone

Interview Details – Campus Hire - The process was very straight forward. One interview in the September October time frame on campus. A follow-up day of interviews in the office about 2 weeks later. Offer was extended in November.

Interview Details – Straight-forward. Phone interview, in person interview with 3-4 people.

Negotiation Details – No negotiation. All starting associates sign the same offer.

Interview Details – I was directly selected for the 3rd round interview (the office visit). Because it was the first and last interview, I was very nervous because it was schedule for five hours (from 8:30 to 1:30) However, the actual interview was not bad at all. After arriving the office, the partner gave an introduction about the office and they we did some ice breaker games. The actual interview started at 10 A.M. and I was interviewed by a partner, a HR manager, and a manager separately. Each interview was 30 minutes. After the end of the interview, we had a recession at a local restaurant and I had an opportunity to blend with other PwC employees. The interview ended at 1:30 P.M. and I thought I did pretty good. I was surprised that one of the partners called me back at 3:30 P.M. the same day and made an offer!
