I want to receive updates regarding this question via email.

How long does it take for PwC to respond?

Hi, does anyone have any idea about how long does it take for PwC (Middle East Graduate Programme) to respond whether or not I will be invited to the final round (partner interview)?

BIG4 have been awfully (>3 weeks response times) slow in the middle east region in the past few months, based on my experience coaching candidates. So be patient :). 

Have other options going in parallel.

All the best.

Hi there,

Big 4 can take a lot of time to move you to the next round. I once helped a candidate who had to wait more than 2 months to get a reply.

The best thing you can do to speed up things if you are stuck is to land another offer and notify them – this should help to accelerate things.

Hope this helps,

Francesco

As it is said, it might take quite a lot of time. Totally agree with Ian - wait until 2 weeks before reaching out!

Hi there,

I agree with Adi. While responses can be as short as the same day, they can take several weeks (sometimes more).

If you're really stressed/concerned you can reach out. However, if you do so, please make sure you wait at least 2 weeks! Furthermore, when you reach out, please be very careful with your wording. I just had a candidate follow-up with HR with a poorly worded email (he should have checked with me beforehand), which will now risks his results if he was indeed about to be offered another round.

I had a final round interview for a manager role at a tier 2 company. HR said feedback was positive but they’d assess other candidates too. It’s been 10 days with no update. Is this normal or should I take it as a silent rejection and move on?
