Recently had a telephone interview, the interviewer was very nice and clear and asked questions to do with the PWC competencies. After each question I was asked 'how did this make you feel' and 'why did you do that'. Some of the questions asked were 1. What do you know about the qualification 2. What does the job role entail? 3. Describe a company that isn’t doing well, what are the opportunities and threats? How can PWC help? 4. Describe a time when you have had to solve a very difficult problem? Why was it difficult for you at that time? 5. Describe a time when you had to complete different projects to meet a deadline? 6. Describe a time when you have maintained a useful contact or network outside of your university or work? 7. Describe a time you have actively sought feedback.

Online assessment, video interview, virtual assessment centre. Interview was very relaxed and I felt little pressure, comfortable. Questions were basic and traditional, behavioural and motivational questions dominated, but you need to demonstrate a deep and long-term understanding of the role and career hierarchy at PwC.
