Overview of Experience
Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
First, I met my team and got an update on what stage the work is at. I'd be assigned a few tasks that typically involved filling in data from financial statements and earlier audit cycles into new documents. I also joined calls with my team regarding the audit and about PwC as a firm with its many opportunities and engagements.
What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
It was very nice because most information was relayed by your colleagues who all either knew about or had already taken advantage of opportunities at PwC - this made the opportunities stand out as realistic career paths.
