I applied through university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at PwC (New York, NY)
Interview
Applied through campus career portal.
Phase 1: On campus interview. 2 rounds. Behavioral. The first interview mostly discussed my projects and not many questions. Took about 45 mins(Though the typical time is 30 mins). The second interviewer asked many behavioral questions ('how would you react in this scenario..etc)
Got a call in about a week or an onsite interview in NYC.
They sent a case one day before the interview and I was asked to prepare.
Phase 2: Onsite. 3 rounds
All the participants were taken into a hall where we were given 45 min to prepare a presentation on few papers. After that, my first interview was with a partner. Behavioral. Then with another senior associate. The final round was case. The interviewer enacted as a client and I was supposed to enact as a PwC Consultant and present my summary on the case.
Everything went well. Amazing accommodation. Reimbursements for food and transportation.
There were 3 rounds in total, first round is of technical type, second is of technical+HR type and the last one is of HR type where I was asked about the job role, CTC of the job applied and my willingness to join

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at PwC (Manila, Manila) in Feb 2023
Interview
Initial Interview via phone call by a third party recruitment. Qualifications was discussed. HR was easy to get along with, very responsive, and motivational. Technical Interview was conducted via zoom with the hiring manager. Felt uneasy as he talked like he's in a hurry. Didn't engage or listen attentively as he kept asking questions I already answered. Final interview are done with Senior Partner. Job offer phase was dragging and traumatizing. Got JO the moment they found out I have JO on hold from other companies. They say salary range is above market but they proceeded to negotiate lower than the expected salary lol. Got callback for a verbal offer (HMO is not good btw) was given an onboarding date. They kept rescheduling when to send the offer letter said it is only pending for signature from the management. Made me wait a week(??) before they gave a decision which I initiated follow up. Only to find out the offer is rescinded even though the HR gave reassurance during verbal offer. They didn't give any feedback as to why but looking up they preferred to look for a Managerial role instead. Not even mad that it got rescinded. I got infuriated because they put me on a tight spot - they took too long to give me an update that my other JO expired.
