Me postulé en línea. El proceso tomó 2 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en PwC (Luxemburgo) en ene 2011
Entrevista
I applied online for an Intern position and did specify that I was looking for an intern position in the field of HR. I received an e-mail about 2 weeks later for an interview and a few days later, I showed up at their premises in Luxembourg. I was put in a conference room and waited a whole 45 minutes. The recruiter showed up, dressed in a more than casual way (a mix of bandana biker and cow-girl)!
She sat down, and headed straight to the interview, no introduction (no hello, how are you) and nothing to put me at ease in the first placed. She started questioning me in a very disinterested way and obviously wasn't prepared at all, and didn't even read my cover letter!
She thought I was interviewing for an Intern position as an Auditor, yet she didn't apologize for not noticing and really stayed on the audit-path, challenging me with very specific questions in that field (which I had no answer to). It was as if she wanted to lead me into that role on purpose, since that was what she was obviously looking for: an audit intern!

Why are you looking for an internship as an auditor? (Well, I wasn't - and specified this in my cover letter and on my resume's title!) Recruiter was totally unprepared!
Q: What can you bring to PwC? - A: My skills [...] and what's more, I understand that PwC Luxemburg is very keen on good language profiles - well, I speak 3 languages fluently.
Recruiter's Answer: Well, don't think you're the only one, I speak 3 languages too, so I don't see where'e that's an asset.
Technical questions were not like other technical interviews. They give you answers as options to pick from instead of you coming up with and presenting your answer like you would normally

Strength based interview, approx. 30 mins. The interviewers were friendly and approachable, as were the entire Talent team. Walked through my CV, general "why us, why you, why this team" questions. Felt like they really wanted to get to know you and how you would fit into the culture.
Super straight forward, standard difficulty questions with a few requiring STAR structured responses. They also asked about my experiences both at uni and extracurricular. It was online for me and I had 2 interviewers.
