Interview
I had an initial interview with a Director who was focused on my technical skills. After 2 weeks, I was invited for a 2nd interview with a Partner who was more focused on my soft skills, i.e. how do I lead a team, how do I resolve a conflict, how important work-life balance is, whether there is an industry that I wouldn't be happy to work for, etc.
After 1-2 weeks of the 2nd interview my recruiter informed me that I got a job offer and the starting date was after 1.5 month and once the security check background was completed which was very robust and detailed. They even contacted my university to verify the title of my dissertation that I had included on my CV.
I was very impressed by the friendly environment during the interview process and especially with the fact that the Partner didn't follow a"ticking the box" interview process. It was evident that the Partner was keen to understand my personality and whether I would be a good match with the team.
This showed me that he really cared about his team and I was even more excited to join PwC.
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.
I applied online. I interviewed at PwC (São Paulo, ) in May 2026
