I applied through college or university. I interviewed at PwC (San Jose, CA) in Oct 2013
Interview
Applied through University Recruiting. Conversational, behavioral interviews with recruiter on campus, invited to (flown out as applicable) networking dinner in the city that you're interviewing for, followed by 3 in-person interviews. They're more concerned about who you are as a person, whether your colleagues would enjoy working with you if most days are spent in a tiny conference room. Technical expertise are not a big focus - which is a relief for a field that is so technical
I applied through college or university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at PwC (New York, NY) in May 2015
Interview
Completely culture/fit based. No questions about accounting or IT, these they assume you have baseline knowledge from school but will learn on job. Basic interview questions that cover leadership, culture/fit, volunteer experience, questions you have for the partners, etc. Nothing difficult.
