I finished the career conversation but haven't heard back yet. It's been almost 10 days. Is this common?

Did they call you to give you an offer or just on UCAS track?

The offer hasn’t been made yet only had an email saying it’s processing

Ohh ok.
Did you just do a group exercise, and did you feel like you were best in your group or not?

Have you got any tips? :smile:

Yeah it’s just a group exercise and I felt like everyone in the group pulled their weight tbh. Focus on communicating well and articulating ideas, taking a leadership role without overwhelming the group and make sure you’re good at working in a team and you should be fine

I'm not too sure but I have heard with some others that its taken more than 2 weeks for them to hear back.

Were there any other individual tasks like report writing etc or an interview? I heard there will be a coaching interview at the end of the AC.

I only had a group task so I’m pretty sure you heard wrong unless the assessment days vary

Ahh okay thanks. Yeah I believe the graduate/internship roles are different then.

Do uno how long it takes for them to reply after completing the online assessment with arctic shores?
I just finished it last night...

Anyone else passed the assessment day? Got an email from the course director at Nottingham saying I just have to wait for UCAS to update and that I’ll be getting an offer soon

Hey can you give me an idea of what the AC was like? Was it just a group task?

They got back to me straight away but if your score isn’t as high it could take longer for them to make a decision

what score did you get? if it was good enough you'll get a reply immediately. If not, they'll take some time to let you know whether you're through or not.
Hi guys, yeah I just got the email for the link for the feedback report, and then the link for the career conversation. I didn't get a score, are they supposed to give u one?

What was your group exercise about?
And what did you individually have to do?
Thanks :smile:
After the AC, do you think PwC seriously consider your video interview, as well as your performance in the group exercise at the AC ?

You and a group of around three others are given a scenario where you basically have to decide on a strategy a fictional business should take from a handful of options, individually you’ll be given one of these options and it’ll be your job to explain it to the rest of the group

I think it’s more that they use the interview to decide whether or not to take you to AC
