Recommendations & Advice

Would you recommend PwC to a friend?
Yes
What advice would you give to others applying to PwC
Make sure you check what PwC wants from an intern, first of all. Check out what they say about the LoS and about PwC's own priorities (ESG's etc.) and make sure you prioritise those and mention those during your interview process. Also, try to put the client first, be outgoing (but still a good team member), and ask for work. You get out what you put in
