Pwc Management Consultancy - Summer Internship (Phone Interview) at PwC
Accepted Offer – Reviewed Jun 16, 2013 New
Interview Details –
The interview was as expected. They firstly ask why you like PWC etc. and then they quiz you on your experiences. It is best to go into the interview having 3/4 relevant case studies that relate to the specific office and your chosen line of work. Be concise and speak with confidence.
Most importantly stay cool and relax, in my opinion the interview is the easy bit.
Interview Question – There was no real unexpected questions and the key is just simply to have a flowing conversation. Answer Question
