PwC Interviews / Roles Clarification

Question

Hi all,

Does PwC follow the same interview process as MBB? I need some insights about that, please.

and what is the difference between consultants and account managers there? I went through the job descriptions, and both are concerned with problem-solving, but one is on-site, and the other is at the office. Is that really the difference?

Thanks in advance

Answer 1

Hello,

I believe that the general interview format is quite similar (case + behavioral), but be sure to reach out to HR to see if they can give you any guidance on what to expect.

Answer 2

It really depends on the role that you're interviewing for - you should reach out to the recruiting team to ask them what format the interview will take. You can find more information on the types of interviews here https://www.pwc.co.uk/careers/experienced-careers/apply/what-to-expect.html

Answer 3

Hi there,

Yes, they essentially do! You should expect a fit/behavioral and a case interview and they should be candidate-led.

Of course, be ready for anything (them driving the case, no fit, all brainstorming, market sizing, etc.), but, in general, you should expect fit + case.
