Honestly, understand the service offerings and what DDV does / doesn’t do. Be able to articulate how your previous experiences relate to the service offerings. Follow the STAR format and try to frame your answers to address some of the items noted in the PwC professional framework.

Be genuine, showcase your skill set, and articulate your value add to the firm. My advice is on the heels of doing 5 interviews with DDV leadership for a role - and they loved my responses. DM if your want more depth on my answer

If the team paid better like other firms, they would have an easier time recruiting. Run

Who is interviewing? Which round is it?

DM me if you are interested to know about DDV IT

What is DDV

“Just go take a look about posts from DDV” I’m in DDV. I know what we do. But it doesn’t like you can tell me what the differences are? So saying things like M1 is “just clueless” or a “hot air balloon” with no need or desire to explain yourself doesn’t make you look the best
