Recommendations & Advice

Would you recommend PwC to a friend?
Yes
Why?
PwC's apprenticeship where studying and working are spread over 3 years is a very good training approach as work time helps acquire real life experience of what you are learning, but it also works the other way around. Work experience has helped me pass the Audit related exams and not only them.
What tips or advice would you give to others applying to PwC?
Try to be prepared and research the role prior to joining. getting in touch with current employees both online and during in person events could also help a lot so you can get a feel of what the company offers and the people it looks for.
