I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at PwC (Chicago, IL) in Oct 2021
Interview
The process only included one interview. The interview consisted of two parts, a behavioral interview and a case interview. Each part only lasted an hour. There was a small break in between. Overall the process was not painful.
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.
