I was introduced to PwC Strategy by a headhunter. PwC Strategy is a strategy consultancy that is part of PwC UK. As such, the interview process was comparable to other strategy consultancies ie centred around business case studies.
I had a total of six interviews of which 3 with partners and 3 with senior managers. Each followed the same structure: introduction, CV-related questions to probe for values / abilities (eg "give me an example of when you where a leader of a team") with further drilling down, then a business case study and then an opportunity for me to ask questions.
I interviewed for a position that's slightly out of my expertise. They took the time to understand why and was engaging to explain what the role requires. There were 3 of them.
Softball questions. Technical questions were nothing difficult and so weren't memorable. Interviews were more of a soft skills check than anything else. The decision was already made once my resume was seen.
Well coordinated . Straight to the point. No time wasted. A positive experience overall. Interviewers were nice and respectful. A panel of 2 people who asked different questions. Was asked behavioural questions and some technical questions. Ensuring answers followed the STAR approach
