I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at PwC (Seattle, WA) in Sept 2012
Interview
On-campus interview and then an in-office interview. In-office interview is an all day event were you have orientation/breakfast, then you interview with 4 managers or partners for an hour each and go to lunch.
It was a good interview process where they test your accounting knowledge and ability to work in a team. They also ask you behavioural questions as well. Best to prepare as much as possible beforehand
Very straightforward, partners & senior managers were friendly and asked expected technical questions. Key thing to stand out is to really research the company and how the grad programme works - focus on exactly what you will do in assurance, what the role would look like and also some basic accounting understanding.
online application for graduate role had initial aptitude test. I passed and did the one way digital interview which was just answering 2 questions where you record your self. Passed and went to assessment center which was a group case study and interview.
