Employer paid for elearning tools, pluralsight, Udemy, trailhead etc. Huge crop of experts in many different fields also on hand to assist any time with any issue

Same as above, support outstanding both resourcing and financially.

I have in fact become overskilled for the role thanks to the programme. Many of my cohort are able to job hunt and leverage their qualification and skills to move on.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
5/5
Plenty. Weekly, monthly and annual team days. Get to travel to London from Belfast for some of these or to other UK cities all expensed. Brilliant experience for someone of uni age.

Recommendations & Advice

Yes
Why?
My experience has been outstanding
What tips or advice would you give to others applying to PwC?
Consider the corporate response when applying/interviewing. The stand out candidate for the TDA programme is the one that can see the team dynamic and support their colleagues, not a complete individual or someone self-serving.
