Thanks ! was the logical similar to the real one in terms of difficulty also can u pls give me some advice on the work style personality questionairre as not looking forward to it
Logic was similar. Not too difficult for PwC. I would just advise doing as much practice as possible for them. The more you do, the more you see which patterns start reappearing.*
As for the PwC questionnaire, I really don't know. Its long and repetitive. I just tried to answer honestly, but it forces you to make choices that you don't really want to. I guess you could try to balance your answers, i.e. don't repeatedly put teamwork as a dislike, but then your answers may look very inconsistent since you aren't likely to remember exactly what you put for each question.*

Is PwC questionnaire, numerical and logical? Are they SHL?
Ive done online tests got above average in both but the email said getting average or above average doesnt automoatically guarantee progression to the next stage and that youll have to wait 5 days to find out.

Hoping ive made it
Just wondering did u go score exceptional.
I'm pretty sure I didn't get the highest scores so you should be fine.
Did you apply to the any others apart from deloitte? What role are you going into ?Any advice for applications?
I applied extremely late (January) so unfortunately no experience of the others. I'm going into Risk Advisory (Consultancy).
Probably one important thing is to remember Professional services are all about clients. Any experience you can use to reflect that and reiterate throughout the process helps. Professional services.... Professional servants Similarly, professional services isn't only about smarts (that's what the tests are for), but highly regard you as a person and your fit. That's why you need to know each firms values inside out (Deloitte is big on quality for example) to ensure they will like you and you them. And making sure you're balanced as a person - clients and colleagues need to trust you and like you, so being a genius is not enough. Reflect that too - teamwork, interactions and generally being likeable when you hopefully get to interviews.
Also each sector is different, things like Tax or Audit require a lot more accuracy and perfection (due to the obvious risks) than perhaps consultancy etc requires, so reading as much as possible through company websites, news articles etc helps.
And don't be disheartened if you don't succeed, they get many applicants and their reasons for rejection won't always be down to much more than not fitting in.
