Recommendations & Advice

Yes
What advice would you give to others applying to PwC
Spend time researching PwC before applying so that you understand the company, their values and their purpose. If you get the job, you'll get a lot out of it if you put a lot in, and the effort is worthwhile since you can be offered a graduate job after.
