I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at PwC in Sept 2017
Interview
The online assessment is not difficult, there are some resources available online to practice before doing the assessment. The On-demand video is more difficult as the way the question asked is difficult to structure the proper answer within 30 seconds in mind. Practice, practice, and practice before recording the video.

Question 1
What is audit/assurance? How are you able to contribute to the value to the team?
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at PwC in Jun 2016
Interview
1st Round: Went for a one-on-one in person interview with the director. Mostly behavioural based but some are based on going through the resume.
2nd Round: PPTC which included a written exercise, a group discussion, a partner interview and a logical reasoning assessment
Written (45 min) - Given a case to read through and write a report about it. Structure and fluent writing is important. Simplicity in structure is a good thing as you will not have time to try anything complicated
Group (1 hour) - In a group with 6 other applicants where each is given the same case to read. After about 20 min, you will have to discuss the case amongst yourselves and come up with a recommendation. Be sure to make valuable contributions. Don't talk for the sake of talking. Be a strong team player and not someone who steals other people's spotlights
Partner Interview (30 min) - Mostly behavioural based. Keep in mind what makes a PwC Professional and tailor your examples to those requirements. Be sure to ask great questions at the end
Logical Reasoning (20 min) - Try to complete the pattern to the best of your ability (quickly but accurately). Practices are available online and it's important to try them out. They will provide you with a link in the invitation email
Networking - happens in between the above assessments (lunch will be provided as well as drinks and snacks; be sure to keep yourself hydrated throughout the day and sweets to keep your energy going)

There is 3 parts to it, the first being the online assessment. The online assessment isn't very difficult and you can practice by using some online resources. Just keeps thing consistent when doing the final assessment. The video interview had 3 questions which can be found on previous post here. The in-person interview you need to be prepared to respond in ways that matches up with PwC's professional framework.
