I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at PwC (New York, NY) in Mar 2022
Interview
After being selected for the interview, did 3 rounds of mainly technical interviews with senior associate, manager, and director. Questions asked by director and manager were pretty difficult related to derivatives.

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at PwC
Interview
4 interview: 1 screening, 1 case, 2 behavioral. The case study is fairly open-ended. You need to go in with a basic understanding of business concepts, but you won't be quizzed on anything. The 2 behavioral are casual conversations. They are mainly looking for logic/reasoning skills, communication, and confidence. The hardest thing is getting an interview. I was lucky to have an employee referral.

Question 1
Describe a recent business transaction in the news.
The interview process as a whole was conversational in nature and did not touch on any technical areas. Significant prior knowledge or experiences were not the priority. Not difficult overall.
4 rounds for lateral hires. The candidate must be well versed in the domain they are applying for as question will be pertaining to those. The interview should be okay if you are prepared
