Why PwC
It was fine. No complaints. No notes. Easy to communicate with. Timely and thorough response. Interviewer was professional and courteous. Next steps were clearly communicated. Glad to have spoken with my interviewer.
Went through 2 rounds of interview, first one virtual and second one a case study round at PwC office. Case study came up on the spot, was relatively okay interview but did not progress beyong.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at PwC (Dallas, TX)
Interview
3 rounds including initial recruiter screening, senior manager interview (technical) , and partner interview (behavioral). It was a pretty smooth process for interviews. However, it took a while to hear back with the final offer.
