I have an interview next week with PwC for Sales Director (MSFT Security). Im looking for any advice on the PwC sales process and environment.. also, im a more senior guy, but it seems Director at PwC is an IC position. Should my expectation be the same as most other sales IC positions...build and manage pipline? Any help appreciated.

Where did you find that position? Every time I’ve gone on their site I’ve never seen any sales positions.

Same. All of the Sales positions i can find are only on LinkedIn

PwC built MEDDIC.

I thought PTC built MEDDIC

Is it a CRE position?

Yes

Nope, your expectations should be 180 degrees different. Why? Your not a “seller” you’ll be a “sales consultant.” And, not only will that be a different role with clients. But, notably much different inside PwC itself. Prepare accordingly. For example, do not answer the question about how to move the 500 pound rock? Yet, respond with its already been moved and this is how. Gd luck,
