Before your interview, review your career goals and determine how PwC can further you along your career path. This will help the hiring authority contrast how career focussed you are against how they can help your professional development. For example, one career progression of professional and personal development detailed on PwC's website is as follows: Associate, Senior Associate, Manager, Senior Manager, and Director.

This question will help the assessment vendor evaluate how confident you are that you're the right fit for this opportunity and if you're pursuing it for the right reasons. On one hand, your answer could reveal if you are shooting for the stars or a more realistic target. On the other, it could reveal whether you have career goals or have no real ambition and are more comfortable cruising along with the status quo.

When answering questions about your professional goals or aspirations, be mindful of how you present yourself as a professional. Here are some tips on how to present yourself, provided by HireVue, PwC's assessment vendor: "We recommend that you wear exactly what you would for a traditional face-to-face interview. This can mean something different for every company and position, so we recommend picking your outfit based on the role you are interviewing for. Think about it this way: if you're applying to a non-customer-facing role, it will probably have a more casual dress code, and a nice, clean top, free of excess writing will probably do for your interview! Alternatively, if you're applying for a role where you'd typically wear a suit and tie every day, we recommend you do the same for your interview. It may feel a little different to put on your Sunday best for your kitchen table, but hey, at least you won't have to get it pressed again after this, right?"

"Eventually, I would love to end up in a director position. I would also be willing to work at any global location."
