Good afternoon everyone, i just did my own interview. Personally I wasn’t asked a lot of behavioral questions and i think it depends on who interviews you. So just prepare for anything and be calm and confident. Best of luck
It seems I was directly after you. I was asked about 5 or 6 behavioural questions though. Then there was talk about my interests and hobbies and what I know about Pwc and all that.
Being calm, FRIENDLY and confident will really help. When it's time to ask questions, ask freely. They're really nice people.

Done with the interview.
Questions were quite similar to what have been earlier posted.

Sessions
A
topic to discuss, How the Federal Government can reduce youth restiveness.

B
Let's meet you (achievements, new things learnt and so on)
Why PwC (services and news)
Why your preferred LOS
Scenario based questions on ethical conduct.
How you keep up with professional contacts.
Describe yourself
What makes you the best candidate..


And so much more.
PS
I would advise you go through all synopses and not only your line of interest. You could be asked indirectly about others.
Good luck guys!

Guys anchoring bias is real, so you’d want to avoid it. If you’re yet to interview, please don’t let this unnecessary fixation on possible topics for section 1 make you nervous and unsettled.

It should be fairly obvious by now that anyone can be asked to discuss anything which implies that one is better-off focusing on interview discussion principles and techniques. Also, I believe that most of the topics you’re going to be asked to discuss are topics that on a normal day, you’d have tons of ideas about and can discuss for at least 5 minutes.

Here are a few tips for section 1 – that I think – that will enable you to come across as confident, strategic, and methodical.

1. Have a pen and paper with you so that you can write out the topic when it is being read out to you as well as relevant points about the topic that may immediately come to mind. Then request to read out to them what you just wrote and ask them to confirm if it’s correct. After this is when your time would start to count. The reason why (I think) this is crucial is that it enables you to buy some time to think about what to say.

2. Next, take a minute or two at the max to think about and write down relevant points. This leaves you with about 3 or 4 minutes to speak. The reason I consider this step a vital one is that it makes you come across as smart and strategic as opposed to someone that is quick to talk without thinking. Even if you’ve got a lot to say about a topic, it’s always good to take a couple of seconds to gather your thoughts.

3. Start with an introduction e.g., “here are 4 things that I think about this” or “what I think about this is three-fold” and take a minute to talk about each, if you fancy this approach.

4. Finally, just in case it happens that you’re presented with a topic that you’ve got zero ideas about, you could link that topic to a related one that you’re familiar with and discuss it. For e.g., say you were asked to discuss cybersecurity and you don’t really have any opinions about it, you could link it to cybercrime and discuss that instead. In this case, your intro would be sth like: “Unfortunately, I haven’t kept up with the developments on cybersecurity, but I do, however, think that it is tightly connected to the cybercrime that a handful of unemployed Nigerian youths are heavily involved with.” This makes you appear tactfully brilliant, I think.

Disclaimer: I no be expert o! Just sharing my thoughts with anyone that might find it helpful.

Goodluck.
