Can a candidate apply to PwC and Strategy& at the same time? Since Strategy& is part of the PwC network, it might seem confusing for the recruitment team.

Hello!
That is indeed a very question, and I would touch base with HR.
My guess (90%) is that it´s different teams, hence different recruiting funnel, since the profiles are indeed quite different.
Hope it helps!
Cheers,
Clara

Hi Anonymous,
You can apply to both at the same time because they are different teams.
For the future, if you doubt, you can always call HR and clear that. They are always there to help you and provide all the necessary information.
Do you need any further help?

It depends. Within campus recruiting you have to select one (at least we did).
If applying out-of-cycle then you can absolutely apply to both.

Hi,
It's different teams so I don't think there is any downside. I also doubt that you can confuse them:)
