I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at PwC in Sept 2016
Interview
I passed the online tests and waited for one month to have the telephone interview. It lasted about 40-45 minutes. The interviewer was friendly and happy to re-clarify questions I did not fully understand. It was necessary to prepare 1-2 questions to ask the interviewer at the end. I was invited to attend AC after 3 days.
