I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at PwC (Toronto, ON) in Feb 2017
Interview
The structure of the interview was a classic consulting first round interview. The first 40 minutes of the interview were about my personal experiences, professional experiences and carrer aspirations/goals. The last 20 minutes were case questions (2), more specifically "market sizing" questions. Interviewers also asked a few questions about initiatives I took in my community (volunteering...). The interview was formal, but the interviewers were very nice and it took the form of a discussion rather then back-to-back questions.
Advice:
- Don't be afraid to ask for clarifications in the case questions, especially if you are not familiar with the industry.
- State your assumptions clearly during case questions and explain your calculations.
The interview process consisted of multiple rounds, including technical discussions focused on data structures, algorithms, backend development, system design, and project experience. There was also a managerial/behavioral discussion covering problem-solving approach, teamwork, communication skills, and overall role fit, followed by an HR discussion regarding compensation, notice period, and joining timelines.
