what should i expect from the PWC interview? Anyone been through it or currently working there, give me advise. Thanks

hi, I havent been thru the interview process but a friend of mine who did and works there told me of a few things to expect.
if its a group interview, u must ensure that u are not drowned in the conversation, always try and contribute on the topic no matter how silly your idea might be, but u must express yourself, pwc is a consulting company and they are definitely pro business ( which means more business and private sector involvement and less governement intervention. when asked about the privatisation program, u must affirm a resounding support for the program, u should study the banks website theyseem to like to write a lot, and u should from there prepare the questions to ask, they could be qustions pertaining to career development, ask if they have a mentorship program, read up kpmg nigeria website too, and i suggest you take an active interest in business stories, check businessday nigeria website and make note of business stories. working in these places u need tio have a real interest for business, helping clients succed and in continous learning, just read up and dont sound like an adams oshiomole when asked about controversial goverment reforms be smart.
best of luck

oops i meant that u study pwc and kpmg websites, businessday online website and take note of business stories. try to read a little about the unit u expressed interest in joining, and if you cant get that unit, (they might inform you that only audit department is recruiting) say u will join them. many people will lose the chance because they dont want audit because they dont want to do ICAN.
anyways all the usual things u must do at the interview u should do.
best of luck

thanks a lot, il definately study more on business stories. I indicated interest in their Performance Improvement Unit. Anyone have advice on that?
I dont think i would go for audit either, it does not fit into my career plans. Thanks again
