I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at PwC (Kuala Lumpur) in Dec 2021
Interview
Applied in November 2021 for Tax, got a phone iv, needed to complete an aptitude test and waited 3 weeks for the results but did not get shortlisted. I called them and request to consider my other applications for other positions. Got a phone iv again for Audit the following week, needed to complete an english test and was scheduled for an interview the next day. IV session was fine, lasted for 1hr 20mins and felt more like a conversation. The senior manager wanted to know more about me and how i can fit in the firm (character and attitude wise). Tips is be honest about yourself and have a clear goal on what you can do and what you can bring to the firm. They seem to want a goal driven and committed candidate for the role. Be confident but humble. No technical questions btw.

Question 1
What is the biggest challenge you have ever faced in your working experiences?
I applied online. I interviewed at PwC (Londres, Inglaterra)
Interview
Immediately after submitting your application you will be invited to the first stage, an online assessment involving maths and logic problems, similar to other companies.
About a month later I was notified of the second stage, an online virtual assessment centre. The VAC lasted about 4 hrs and has three parts: a group interview where we discuss a fictional consulting problem, an individual task writing a report based on given information, and a one-to-one interview that mainly focuses on your experience in the group session, along with some motivational/behavioural questions.
The third stage is a one-to-one in-person partner interview. Before your interview they’ll invite you to a coaching call where they tell you some things that may come up and how to prepare. They’ll also give you some idea about how you did in the VAC and what you can improve. At the actual interview, the style really depends on your interviewer and it felt more like a coffee chat. Although my advice is to study some PwC values and your own motivation beforehand. The interview was nice and I was notified about my result in only about 3 weeks.
lot of stages of interview. i need to take a test. then go through the first stage of interview. then 2nd interview is quite tough as they the questions are more very high thinking level which i am underprepared. but it was a great experience.
The process was well-structured and professional overall. It included behavioral questions, discussions about audit/accounting concepts, and questions focused on teamwork and problem-solving. Interviewers were friendly and made the conversation comfortable. The process was moderately challenging but fair, with clear communication throughout.
