Overview of the Experience

Please give an overview of what your work experience involved:
4/5
It involved documentation and sampling which helped me gain a basic understanding of audit processes.
To what extent did you enjoy your work experience?
4/5
I enjoyed the city where I was allocated to as well as the company of my peers who are in the same programme. However I was unbooked for my last week of placement and got no response from resourcing about it.
How well organised was your work experience?
3/5
It wasn't that well organized as I was unbooked for some time and I kept being booked onto jobs which didn't have any work for me. When I was booked onto some clients, the senior who is supposed to mentor me isn't booked onto the job yet.
How much did your work experience help you in deciding on your future career path?
5/5
It helped me gain more of an insight into what auditing is and what it would be to move up the ladder as well in that field as I interacted with seniors around me.
Were you paid or reimbursed for this experience?
5/5
Yes I was paid a stipend on a monthly basis from my employer.

Skills Development

What training and skills development did you learn from your work experience?
5/5
I learnt many different soft and hard skills such as effective communication, networking as well as critical and analytical thinking and decision making.

Company Culture

How much did you learn about the company culture and what it would be like to work there?
5/5
I learnt a lot about company and corporate culture and a lot about how pwc social culture works within regional office.
Were there opportunities for networking and meeting other employees?
5/5
Yes, there were plenty of social events organized by the office and many days allocated as team table day which allows us to work with others on the same job.
