I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at PwC (Atlanta, GA) in Dec 2011
Interview
I was first contacted for an office visit for the tax-IAS internship. I did not get a typical first round interview but instead received an email offering an office visit. The office visit consisted of four interviews and a lunch. Overall, the experience was really great-- I really enjoyed speaking to each interviewer (three managers and one partner) and the overall interview was very much conversational and less Q&A. They made me feel very comfortable. Two days later, I received an offer through a phone call. The duration of their decision process was pleasantly quick.
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.
