I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at PwC (Los Angeles, CA) in Jan 2012
Interview
The PwC recruiter e-mailed me one day asking if I would like to do a phone interview because they are short of tax intern this year. Most of the questions are pretty typical. Behavioral questions and all. The interview lasted about 30 minutes and the recruiter said that he would give me a response by the end of the day, but then I didn't receive any reply then I sent an e-mail asking if there is any update, but no reply on that either. Overall, the interview itself is not a difficult process. They do try to make you feel comfortable and make it more conversational but I personally feel it is highly unprofessional how they handle people they declined.

Interview
colloquio con hr, di circa mezz'ora, e colloquio tecnico per verificare le skills attraverso analisi di un articolo e l'applicazione di normative in un case study basato sull'articolo precedentemente analizzato.
Three rounds, all behavioral. The first was with a recruiter focusing on background and interest in tax. The second was with a senior associate, diving deeper into experiences and teamwork. The final round was with a director, focused on fit, long-term goals, and situational questions.
