Any tips for an upcoming interview for an international tax associate role at PwC (JD/LLM)? What kind of questions do they ask and what can I expect?

Definitely personality / behavioral. I left PwC as a manager and was doing associate interviews. Don’t be arrogant, that was the biggest turn off of lawyers. Know that you don’t know anything but you are willing to learn. I had someone say he couldn’t wait to be in meetings with CEOs and kept calling PwC a company. The partner and I hard passed.

Thank you for the insight.

You can DM me if you can. I was offered a job within a few days of the first interview with a senior manager, director and partner). I did a high level research of PwC and studied interview questions from a website that offers Big 4 interview prep questions for like $30.

For an associate position, it’s going to be strictly personality/behavioral fit.

I’m graduating in December, with a background in environmental economics and policy. Consulting didn’t work out this cycle. Made it to final rounds for Bain and Kearney but in the end didn’t get an offer. I want to recoup and try again, but I’m worried that once I’m out of undergrad the door will be closed to starting in consulting.

What can I do to make this happen? I have friends and connections at Bain and Kearney and the other firms as well, but not sure if it’s feasible now.

As a law student interested in going into the field I’ve seen a lot of negative comments saying that only lawyers who couldn’t get into big law go into PA. Although I know most people try to get into big law initially, it is very competitive and many don’t stay past 2-3 years. You certainly don’t make as much going into PA as a lawyer but the pay is certainly not bad and the WLB is generally much better. Can anyone speak to how they got into PA and if you would rather be working in Big Law
