Behavioral Other

After applying, I got an online assessment with four behavior questions and three games. I'm still waiting to hear back about the next steps. The games were straightforward, involving memory tasks like number and word memorization, and there was a personality test as the final game.

Other Behavioral

I applied for the scholarship program. The first interview was a one-way automated interview, which felt impersonal and a bit intimidating as I was talking to a computer with no feedback. However, I managed to move to the next stage by giving concise answers and looking directly at the camera. The second part of the interview was a conversation with an HR coordinator. It went pretty well and focused mainly on my experiences (personal, academic, and professional) and how they align with PwC's core attributes.

Behavioral Case Other

It was a virtual interview, and the whole process was pretty simple, no real pressure. It started with three quick behavioral questions, each taking about 3 minutes with only 30 seconds to prepare. Then there was a case study that had a 15-minute prep time and a 5-minute presentation, and after that, there were three games.
