Based on the most helpful WSO content, PWP interviews can vary in terms of technicality and focus. For example, in previous discussions like the "PWP SA 2021" thread, candidates have asked about how technical the interviews are and whether they are non-target friendly. Additionally, in the "PWP SA 2022" thread, someone mentioned receiving an invite for a first round and inquired about the type of questions asked.
While specifics for 2026 aren't directly mentioned, you can likely expect a mix of technical questions (e.g., valuation methods, accounting principles) and behavioral questions (e.g., teamwork, problem-solving). It's also worth preparing for potential brainteasers or mental math, as some candidates have humorously noted odd questions like "3x2 digit multiplication" in past threads.
