I applied online. I interviewed at PwC (Toronto, ON) in Jan 2017
Interview
I applied online, recruiter scheduled a call and shortlisted me to progress further in the process. Then I was invited to PwC Professional Talent Center (Toronto, ON) . I attended pptc which was a mix of group activities and individual assessment. Pattern recognition, summarizing a report (written skills), Group activity and 1-on-1 with a senior associate. A big player in all of it is the time constraint! They say it's ok if you were rushed but it's really not okay. At the end of the day, HR woman said she will get back to everyone regardless of their outcome but she never did. After a few weeks of waiting, I followed up with all the HR people involved in the process but no one bothered replying to my correspondence. They just didn't care I guess. Horrible attitude from the HR reps.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Talk to me about your experiences in previous jobs and projects.
Made it to a case round where they asked fairly basic questions about a business case and what I would do with new data. Pretty standard for consulting interviews, nothing unexpected.

Question 1
Given this new data for the business case we gave you, how would you update your recommendations?
Online test and then in person interview. The online tests were faily standard. Interview process followed why pwc and why the role etc . They then asked if I wanted to ask them anything and I could tell that they were interested to see if I'd researched the role and company and had applicable questions.
