I applied online. I interviewed at PwC (Hong Kong) in Nov 2014
Interview
I had aptitude test on 12/10，received ac invitation on 20/11
Ac was not difficult. But i had an exeptionally long managee interview. All questions were based on CV. I was asked one question mandarin, the rest
are in cantonese.
lot of stages of interview. i need to take a test. then go through the first stage of interview. then 2nd interview is quite tough as they the questions are more very high thinking level which i am underprepared. but it was a great experience.
The process was well-structured and professional overall. It included behavioral questions, discussions about audit/accounting concepts, and questions focused on teamwork and problem-solving. Interviewers were friendly and made the conversation comfortable. The process was moderately challenging but fair, with clear communication throughout.
