I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at PwC (Hongkong) in Dec 2010
Interview
Standard Procedures. Online application - Written Test - Accessment Center (both panel & 1:1 interview) - Partner Interview.
No technical questions at all. Most of them are fitting questions, and some questions about the company and current issues.
My partner Interview lasted for 1 hour and 15 mins, but my friend's is only 20 minutes' long. I guess it depends on the partner & whether they have time to talk with you.
The culture is quite friendly and HR sounds nice over phone. But probably because they have too many applications to process, I will not call their recruitment process exactly "efficient". But people there are nice.
lot of stages of interview. i need to take a test. then go through the first stage of interview. then 2nd interview is quite tough as they the questions are more very high thinking level which i am underprepared. but it was a great experience.
The process was well-structured and professional overall. It included behavioral questions, discussions about audit/accounting concepts, and questions focused on teamwork and problem-solving. Interviewers were friendly and made the conversation comfortable. The process was moderately challenging but fair, with clear communication throughout.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How would you approach identifying risks or material misstatements during an audit engagement?
Final interview: was prepped by an early careers team member on a video call before hand. Interview was with a director or partner. Asked about how i expect to progress and why i want to work for the firm.
