I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at PwC (Makati City) in Jun 2018
Interview
First interview is with HR. It was short, basic and personal. HR is nice so don't be nervous! 2nd interview is with a manager but I haven't got a call yet. The test includes grammar and 3 essays if your applying in the Audit department. If you're applying for a position in the tax department, it includes the same grammar exam but with 5 essays.
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.
