PwC Forensic Advisory

Hey guys, I have an interview with PwC Forensic Advisory next week and I can't seem to find too much information about it's forensic practice through its website.

I am wondering what kind of work you do and how are the long term career aspects of this job? I got interviews for MBB this year but did not get into any management consulting firms and want to try again in the following years, will the experience at PwC Forensic Advisory be beneficial for me applying to these firms again?

Thanks for any help! =D

I have a buddy that knows 2 FBI agents that came from Big 4 forensic advisory so there's that.

If I had asked people what they wanted, they would have said faster horses - Henry Ford
 

While PwC forensic is a supposed to be a cool place to work, I don't know if it will help you get into MBB in the future. Have you considered doing PwC and then going to a top MBA program to move on to MBB?

When you are great, people will often mistake candor for arrogance.
 
macroI would imagine that a forensic accounting background could be useful for some equity hedge funds, particularly short sellers.

Forensic accounting usually involves having inside access to records, not just analysis of public statements/data.

Seconding the FBI as a common exit op.

There have been many great comebacks throughout history. Jesus was dead but then came back as an all-powerful God-Zombie.
