The video interview and AC? Yeah that was for pwc. (I actually got booted out after the video game stage but they reassessed me and brought my application back in.)

I applied for the Graduate Assurance scheme (Spring 19). I wasn't aware there was a specific BRC programme. Where abouts are you based?

Yeah there was a specific BRC Assurance programme!
Im based in London and chose the London office!
You?

Has anyone applied for actuarial services? I've just done the final interview and I was wondering if anyone had already done it and how long it took them to get back to you.


I did mine (also for actuarial services) on the 9th of November and today I got an e-mail saying they were reviewing my answers. The ACs and final-stage assessments supposedly run between 10-12 December, so hopefully they'll respond before then.

Out of interest, do you know when the Spring start dates fall?

I did mine on the 11th of November and today I received my feeback. But on the pwc candidate account it mentions that they will be in touch after their test deadline.
Does yours say the same?

Hopefully, will hear from them soon!

Mine says the same aswell. Does anyone know what the test deadline is? I thought it was 11th November?
Hi!I’ve got an assessment centre for the 26th Nov, coming Monday and super nervous. I just don’t know what to expect. Please can you provide me with some guidance?

Take a breath. ACs get announced every Monday/Tuesday for the week ahead. Give it a couple of days and check back, if you haven’t seen one by next Tuesday then I’d call them.

Congrats on getting through to the AC though! I did mine about a month ago and have an offer. I’ll drop you a message to give you some advise!

I’ve got mine coming Monday. It’d be really helpful if you could guide me!

Have a look through some of the old threads for past accounts.

Previously, candidates have had to redo verbal, numerical and logical tests, read a case study then create a presentation, take part in a group project (sharing info then coming to a unanimous decision) and completing a one-to-one interview with an existing member of staff.
Hey everyone, just did my Career Unlocked game, got a score of 9486 and passed onto video interview, which I'll do sunday!!

I thought the same.
But I just checked the PWC portal and they are currently reviewing applications and video interviews feedback.

Most of the questions are related to a fictional situation presented to you. You get a decent bit of time to prepare each answer so think it through and wrote a plan. Then talk through it naturally and logically.

Hi everyone! I am about to start the careers conversation at pwc, and I have applied for L&D. Anyone applied for any HC departments? Are the interviews all the same or different given the placement you applied for? Can anyone give me tips for the interview? Like is there any obvious questions like: why pwc, why me. Any examples of any skills that will be asked?

Many thanks!

Rejected after Career Conversation -- not surprised considering the feedback I was given. :lol:
