PWC School leavers 2018

I had a partner interview a few days ago which I though went quite well and haven't heard back yet, I know it's still early. But I feel panicky, is the success rate for partner interviews high? Like are they picky during partner interviews and fail you for minor errors?

Hey
I had my assesment Tuesday and haven’t heard back yet

Mate, I had mine like 2 weeks ago now and they still haven't let me know.

Hey everyone, How are you all doing, I have managed to get a date for the partner interview, has anyone else had theirs?

i also have my partner interview coming up!! when is yours booked for??

Congrats on making it to the partner interview!! I hope you smash it!!
What department and city did you apply for ?
I had mine for the 2nd November but that got rescheduled and now they're coming back to me with a new date 😅. So hopefully it's all over soon.

All the best !

Thanks! I've applied for tax in London. I recently passed the assessment centre so just waiting for a data for the senior interview as well.

Pretty nervous because I think passing this final stage is really dependent on whether the partner likes you or not. Anyway best of luck and keep us updated!!

If u don't mind me asking, how long did it take for PwC to let u know whether you were successful/unsuccessful at the AC?

1 day haha! I think it depends on how busy they are though but it shouldn't be more than 5 working days in most cases.
How long have you been waiting??

How long has it been since your assessment day? The let me know about a week later. I honestly don't know why they long it out, it should be straightforward

Hi I've got my AC at PwC next week. I've applied for Management Consulting in London. What did the group task consist of and were the tests challenging or same as the application process ones? Any tips? Thanks in advance.

Hi mate,

The group task consists of a group a 2 part discussion involving potential investment opportunities for a particular client operating in x industry. You all get given a sheet containing a particular investment route which you debate pros and cons to the entire group. So everybody will get a chance to speak ( and basically get a chance to get assessed by selling yourself ! ). I would advise to speak clearly, learn everybody's name, don't interrupt, remind people of the time but not be a pushy tw*t at the same time, speak politely and have basic table manners lol. It's not a contest to see who makes the best points, you don't even need to be right all the time. It's just an assessment to see how well you work with others.

Now the maths and reasoning tests are similar to the online ones but a tad bit harder so I would recommend smashing some online tests beforehand (practice practice practice baby!! ).

Any questions let me know mate.

It's a fairly enjoyable process. Dress smart, get a good nights sleep beforehand, get there early and drink water plenty, try getting in a bit of breakfast and keeping breathmints handy because when you're nervous and talking bares your breath might bang! Seriously, some chick next to me almost put me in a coma.

Anyway Good Luck! Anything else let me know.
