I had a TAS interview with KPMG so I bet they would be similar. It was mainly fit with a few technicals. The technicals were basic accounting and finance questions (flow of financial statements, walkthrough DCF). For some reason, I think PwC will be more technical so just stick to the basics.

 

I interviewed with PwC's TS group last year, and it was 100% fit.

And I don't know if it really matters, but each of the Big 4 has its own name for it's advisory services group: -PwC Transaction Services (TS) -EY Transaction Advisory Services (TAS) -KPMG Advisory Services (AS) -Deloitte Financial Advisory Services (FAS)

 
IB1:
Well I think it does matter that you know what the practice is called at the big 4 firm you're going for.

Interview is 90% fit with maybe a question of "why valuations?"

Would it be a bad answer to say, "because I see Banking in my future"?
