I applied online. I interviewed at PwC (Nairobi) in Jul 2015
Interview
The interview is a thorough process with the Online tests, then you move to the group interview stage and then to the manager and partner finally.
The questions are more of experiences and checking if they align to the PwC values. If you have good stories that displays these skills then you can be sure to proceed.
The group interview however you are given a topic to discuss and your contribution and the method in which you tackle the question is analysed. The key secret is to talk and contribute and don't over do it, be a team player.

A time when you are part of a team
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.

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.
