I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at PwC (Mumbai) in Mar 2023
Interview
Initially HR asks basic questions - About yourself, Family. Current CTC, Expected CTC, etc and then forward it to technical team. Usually 2 rounds are conducted, First Associate Director and Second Partner

Question 1
1. About yourself 2. Elaborate the work you have done in previous organization 3. Budget related questions since I was giving interview for Direct Tax 4. Normal questions based on my answers
Made it to a case round where they asked fairly basic questions about a business case and what I would do with new data. Pretty standard for consulting interviews, nothing unexpected.

Given this new data for the business case we gave you, how would you update your recommendations?
Online test and then in person interview. The online tests were faily standard. Interview process followed why pwc and why the role etc . They then asked if I wanted to ask them anything and I could tell that they were interested to see if I'd researched the role and company and had applicable questions.
