Interviewing at P&G Finance in about 3 weeks, specifically for a Finance Manager role at their Cincinnati HQ. I've been trying to piece together what the current loop looks like but most forum posts are 2-3 years old.
From what I've gathered so far: online assessments first, then a recruiter screen, then 2-3 functional interviews. But is the finance loop doing any technical modeling or is it fully behavioral? Some older posts say there's a case-style discussion but others don't mention it.
If you've interviewed at P&G in the last 12 months, for any function, would love if you'd drop: function, role level, number of rounds, and any surprises. Trying to build an accurate map before I go in.

Finance Manager loop, Cincinnati, about 8 months ago. 3 rounds total: recruiter (30 min, pure behavioral), hiring manager (60 min, mix of behavioral + high-level finance case discussion, nothing with spreadsheets), and a panel of two (45 min each, all behavioral). No modeling test. The case was conversational, more like 'how would you think about X' than show your work.

Supply Chain loop here, ~6 months ago, Associate Manager level. 4 rounds including a 'Day of Interviews' format where they fly you in and you do 3-4 back-to-back sessions with different people. Behavioral-heavy throughout. They do one operational problem-solving discussion but again it's conversational, no Excel.

Worth noting: P&G's behavioral questions are structured around their internal leadership competencies. If you google their published leadership qualities you'll get a pretty direct map to what they're asking. It's one of those companies that's actually transparent about this.
