I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at PwC in Oct 2010
Interview
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.
Everyone was very welcoming and the process was quite straightforward. I could even choose my location at the end. The interviews happened online and were conducted in German. I appreciate the quick feedback.
Technical questions were not like other technical interviews. They give you answers as options to pick from instead of you coming up with and presenting your answer like you would normally

Question 1
Technical questions were not like other technical interviews. Gave answers as options to pick from.
Strength based interview, approx. 30 mins. The interviewers were friendly and approachable, as were the entire Talent team. Walked through my CV, general "why us, why you, why this team" questions. Felt like they really wanted to get to know you and how you would fit into the culture.
