PwC Intern Interview Questions & Reviews

Interview Details – I was in a very particular position as I was being hired for a relatively long interview by the office in Tokyo which had never taken interns, let alone foreign inters, before.
The process was very efficient and I went through a few rounds of telephone interviews (in English, French and Japanese) before being told that though I could not get the position I was applying for, they were willing to offer me another position. As it turns out, that position suited me perfectly and I got along very well with the team there.

Interview Details – I applied online for an Intern position and did specify that I was looking for an intern position in the field of HR. I received an e-mail about 2 weeks later for an interview and a few days later, I showed up at their premises in Luxembourg. I was put in a conference room and waited a whole 45 minutes. The recruiter showed up, dressed in a more than casual way (a mix of bandana biker and cow-girl)!

She sat down, and headed straight to the interview, no introduction (no hello, how are you) and nothing to put me at ease in the first placed. She started questioning me in a very disinterested way and obviously wasn't prepared at all, and didn't even read my cover letter!

She thought I was interviewing for an Intern position as an Auditor, yet she didn't apologize for not noticing and really stayed on the audit-path, challenging me with very specific questions in that field (which I had no answer to). It was as if she wanted to lead me into that role on purpose, since that was what she was obviously looking for: an audit intern!

Interview Details – For the intern position I only made it as far as the telephone interview, which was pretty rigorous. Asked standard motivation/behavioural questions, such as why PwC, why I chose the service line I applied for, tell me about a time you had to use communication/teamwork to achieve an outcome.

After the telephone interview, I was told the next interview would be at their office with a panel of 2, a HR officer and an employee of the service line I applied for.

Interview Details – It has been an interesting experience. I was clearly the youngest student partecipating but, even though I was kinda worried, I didn't find any particular obstacle during the group interview or during the Skill Test. I had problem with the 1:1 interview. It was clear (even because at the end of the process they told me) that they didn't want me due my age.

Interview Details – passed the phone interview, really easy questions like why pwc, why acturial job, describe a time when you have to work with someone, describe a time when you have a conflict with someone at work, describe a time when you have to raise a issue with someone. failed at the assessment centre group exercise stage.

Interview Details – Superday interview in their NY office with approx 6 different people. Asked several situational questions. Really strove to get a sense of personality and if candidate would fit in well with culture of firm

Negotiation Details – What were you able to negotiate? What advice would you give others considering an offer?

Interview Details – online application, interview was brief about why I wanted to work there, what qualifications I had. Was applying for internship and they were kind to inform me that the department I was hoping for was not recruiting, but that they'd let me know if a spot opens up later.

Interview Details – one to one interview. technical and competency questions. Tells us 5 university modules and give a number 1 to 10 depending on how well you know the subject.

Interview Details – Got a call to set the day. Went in for a couple rounds. Call two days later, got accepted.

Negotiation Details – no negotiation
