I applied through university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at PwC (Seattle, WA) in Oct 2019
Interview
2 Online Interviews: Behavior + Case
Fairly standard behavior interview and turned into a lot more technical questions. Python packages and Privacy Policy etc.
Case interview talked about how I was going to investigate and alleviate a recent cyber incident for a telecom company.
The managers did not show their faces during the google meet interview.
The case interview was not interactive.
Interview questions [1]

Interview
First the interviewer asked me to walk through my resume, then she asked about questions related to java(what is the diff btw class variable and instance variable, what is object oriented programming) Then she asked questions on cybersecurity (what is the difference btw tcp and udp, what is cryptography, difference btw symmetric and non symmetric key, and many more deep topics which i didn't answer and directly said that i don't know ) Then again one question on linux which again i didn't answer, then she asked about my project . then she asked that if i have any questions for her: asked her 2 and ended the call.

Interview
Applied online, then met a recruiter at a university career fair. I was then invited to a pre-interview dinner where I spoke with managers and associates, and then an on-campus interview the following day.
The interview consisted of two parts - a general case study, and a behavioral part with a resume overview. The overall difficulty was average for me because while the behavioral portion was easy, I had never done a case study prior to this interview so I struggled with certain aspects of it. The managers (also interviewers) and recruiters were very friendly throughout this process.
Several weeks after this interview, however, I was invited to another campus event hosted by PwC, a social networking event. I was instructed to RSVP for it, and then a week later, I received a rejection email. A few days after that on the day of the event, I received another rather tactless email from the recruiter basically reminding me that while I was still welcome to attend, the event was only meant for students who had received offers, and that I shouldn't attend in order to avoid 'potential awkwardness or discomfort'. I suspect that poor management and planning resulted in them accidentally sending me an invitation to this event when I shouldn't have received one, but the way it was handled was extremely unprofessional and left a poor taste in my mouth; it felt like a completely unnecessary reminder that I had been rejected.
