Price Waterhouse Coopers

PwC wanted to update and enhance their graduate recruitment process to ensure that it reflected their culture and values and identified the highest quality graduates.

To ensure longevity of the exercises and to avoid any ‘leaking’ of content between universities, Human Assets provided two equivalent versions of the exercises. Individual versions of the group exercises were also designed to enable assessment of different numbers of candidates. The exercises were piloted on recent graduate joiners.

Human Assets received feedback that hiring managers and other key stakeholders were confident that the highest quality graduates were being selected. Candidates also gained an insight into the type of work with which they might be involved as a new graduate on the scheme.
