PwC Advisory Interviews - Anyone hear back yet?

Did other people have their final rounds (virtual case, virtual behavioral) with PwC today? Wasn't sure when I should be hearing back from them or getting updated... Anyone hear anything yet?

Not sure where you are located.. so I'll disclose relevant details:

First I put my application in on the last day it was open. 2 days (a Friday) after completing all of the online components* I was invited to an in-person partner interview for the upcoming Tuesday. I scheduled for the second available time slot (2hour increments)(4 slots available on my day, consecutively starting at 11am).

I was surprised to see many people waiting for their interviews on arrival. Apparently several partners from a variety of specialties were conducting interviews during the allotted hours - and thus 4 people were being interviewed during 1 slot time.

My interview was difficult to gauge. 50% me talking, 50% partner talking. I left wondering if I had sold my capabilities or if I spent the too much time as a canvas for someone to talk at. We shared a few laughs but the partners' decorum was ridgid - I was looking at a stoic face 97% of the time.

However, I did receive an offer. It came in under 48hours of the partner interview in the form of a call, which was brief - a few minutes tops. Honestly I hated the wait, they said they would email written offers to all candidates on the same date - the FOLLOWING Wednesday. So I didn't feel I had an offer until that point.

Most of the people I know from former years had a much more painful drawn out hiring experience. I was part of a new recruit process for full disclosure - new HR staff, new psychometrics, and only a few case challenges.

I did ask at the offer party to the newly appointed recruit/campus manager what the hiring rate was - she said they lost 1 candidate to another offer that was extended to a former recruit from another B4.

*[online components response time: (1) approximately 5 minutes after the assessments, then 1.5 days after an on-demand video recorded interview (no person, only text prompt questions)]

 

Had my first round (phone interview today). Curious what the wait time is when the 1st round is on a Friday (I'm in Canada).

Also unsure on if there is much leeway in when an in-person interview is scheduled. i.e. pre-planned engagements may make a certain day unsuitable for an interview and if it is possible to pick a date.
