J'ai postulé via la recommandation d'un employé. Le processus a pris 3 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez PwC (Grand Rapids, MI) en oct. 2015
Entretien
I was referred by a friend who had me send my resume to the hiring manager and subsequently it was sent to a recruiter. The recruiter contacted me within two days after I first sent my resume in and we scheduled a phone interview within the first week. The recruiter and I had a thirty minutes phone interview and then I was contacted to have an in office interview within the next two weeks.
During the in office interview I met with two partners and one manager for thirty minutes each. The first partner asked strictly technical questions and was assessing how my previous experience will match with PwC. The second partner asked more about my university experience and resume background, but also some very technical questions. The manager conducted the global acumen portion of the interview. This was specifically about my knowledge of current global trends and also about my experience working with teams that spanned geographic areas.
The in office interview was difficult for me because my previous experience did not match what they were looking for and they seemed very skeptical from the beginning and I got the impression I had to prove to them why I deserved the job, not necessarily that it was my job to lose.
Please prepare yourself by understanding very well how your current skills will match up to the open position. It will be very challenging if you do not have experience in the industries that the office serves. Also be prepared for technical questions about auditing A/R, A/P, complicated audit areas you have faced, and global audit experience and examples how the global economy is affecting your clients.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
Q: How do you think your previous experiences will fit? Why PwC? Tell me about yourself.
Q: How do you expect the firm to train you seeing that your previous experience is in different industries than what we serve?
Q: What is a typical for profit client that you work on? What was the most complicated area you audited on this client? What made this complicated? Are there estimates that you need to make judgments on and that have risks associated?
Q: What is your knowledge and experience with peer reviews? Do you know what the regulations and peer review is like on pubic companies?
Q: How do you audit A/R and A/P? Walk me through the procedures you take to audit these areas?
Q: Would you feel comfortable taking a different title than the one you currently have with your company in order to be with PwC? How would you react to an intern knowing more about the software and culture than you although you have more public accounting experience?
Q: Name a time that your audit team spanned geographic areas? What were some of the obstacles that you faced with this?
Q: Name how global events have directly affected your clients recently?
