Am I right to assume that the only thing we are being assessed on is the group task and nothing else as mentioned in the email?

I think so, pwc pride themselves on being transparent with their recruitment process so I can't see them inputting any surprises. At most I think they will have a reflection interview - eg how did you get on today.

I doubt they'll even do that - the fact that most of the day is asking questions shows that they are also trying to show us how good PwC is - adding a surprise interview would not create that impression

Yeah. I think they would have said in the email if we had a short interview.

Is anybody else unable to attend assessment event on set dates and doing a virtual assessment instead?

The day was really calm and honestly nothing you need to worry about.
consisted of a QnA Session Approx 1hour, 5-10 break and a 1-hour group discussion. (No surprise interview :smile:

)

The day started with a short 15min brief then you are split up into a group of six, some do the QnA and some will do the group activity.
There isn't anything you need to prepare as the group activities require u to only use the information given.

We were told approx 350 got through to the ac, and there are about 110 spaces available. So about 1 in 3 will get through.
Not gonna give out too much information, but I'm sure the others will help!

Yeah I wonder if PwC make more than 110 offers though as not everyone is going to get 3As. Idk if they do that.
