I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at PwC (Kwun Tong) in Apr 2016
Interview
Stage 1: Apt test (with verbal reasoning, statistics, logical, writing, personality tests)
Stage 2: Super day (including case study in group of 10 people, individual presentation, panel interview, online-test (logical))
For the super day, there are also the introduction about PwC, having lunch with partners and mangers and Q&A session. Although the HR mentioned that those sections will not affect the marks of interviews, I believed that they did some impact on the impression of personalities of the candidates.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
1. The apt test should be easy for most of students. For the writing test, there will be 30 minutes for writing a short email (around 100 words) and a long essay (around 250 words)about an social issue. Make sure that you have to do typing fast in order to finish the task within the short period of time.
2. Super day will be all about the case study. Usually you will have 27 minutes for a case discussion about the M&A of a company (should about vertical expansion) and decide which firm is the best target for acquisition with explanation in figures, numbers, report and market reviews. Make sure that you are well- organized for suggestion and contribute to the whole process.
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.
