Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
I had a lot of admin to do - this includes preparing for events and making sure it is all logged correctly. Answering student questions and attending events virtually and in person to promote opportunities to join PwC
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
Yes! You are really not treated like an intern at PwC, they really trust you to be a key part of the team. I have learnt so much from this and have had the responsibility to promote PwC at events in front of thousands of students.
Please rate how meaningful the work you were doing was

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills, or developed your existing skills?
I have developed so many skills this year. My confidence and public speaking has dramatically improved. My ability to time manage, delegate and work professionally has also significantly developed. This has been a great placement and I feel far more employable now than I did at the start of my year in industry.
