I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at PwC (Bengaluru) in Jul 2017
Interview
Process for Interview is quite frustrating as HR would never response. Interview scheduled in month of July - 2017 1st Round of Technical (Skype). Interviewer was running an hour late. And Finally happened on same date. Got result on same date that I cleared 1st Round and 2nd Round us going to happen within half an Hour.
No call received after waiting for 2 hours and while calling on HR for asking about interview was going to conduct or not ? No Response. No morality to inform candidate for same.
After 2 Days again HR Called and and scheduled interview very next date. but same incident repeated and no call from panel and HR was not picking up my call or responding mail.
Next date again HR called and this time he given assurance about interview that it was going to conduct and this time on time interview started. Question is quite simple about Projects i have handled and my daily work schedule.
After this no Update from HR for a month. I tried to follow up but he is in not responding mode.
After a month again technical interview conducted from US and I cleared it (Got to know from Panel Guy). Question is quite simple and some what tricky. Make sure you take your time to understand question.
This all thing completed in August - 2017, I am still waiting for HR to respond my mail or pickup my call. I have sent almost 8 Follow up mail and called 3 to 4 times.
Very disappointed with Interview process as being a part of Big 4 organization PwC is having very frustrating process.

There were questions related to real-world project experience, system design, and how I handled challenges in previous roles. The overall process was professional and conversational, with moderate technical depth.
