Hi there, 

You can expect anything between a day and two weeks. 

Now that it's summer I'd rather expect the longer end of this. 

Don't despair - even though I know the wait is hard. 

The best thing that you can do to take your mind off it is to continue applying for roles. 

Plus, this helps generate more opportunities. 

If you're keen on doing that, you might find the following resource useful:


Best,
Cristian

Hi there,

Could be as fast as a few days and as long as many weeks (or a month +).

If it has been a couple of weeks you can feel free to (politely) reach out.

Fingers crossed!

Hello,

Any time between 1-3 weeks is fairly standard. If it's been 4 weeks and you haven't heard back from them, I would reach out to HR to politely ask about the status of your application.

Hi there,

there is no standard “service level” with regards to how long they take, and in my experience, HR in the Middle East tends to take more time than in many other regions.

Would wait for a week to 10 days after the previous interview and then follow up kindly with HR.

Hope this helps.

Regards, Andi

Hi there,

Q: How long does PwC take to get back to candidates about whether they will have a partner interview or not?

If you mean after the first round it might range from a few days to a few weeks.

If you don't hear from them within one week after the interview date, it is fine to follow up with HR.

Good luck!

Based on my experience with PwC, the timeline for getting back to candidates about whether they will have a partner interview can vary. However, in general, PwC aims to provide timely updates to candidates throughout the recruitment process. Typically, you can expect to hear back within a week or two after the initial interviews
