Overview of Experience
Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
We had a packed schedule where we would complete interactive tasks as well as being given the opportunity to ask questions to senior members of staff around the country.
What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
It was really valuable hearing from current associates and the way the OneDeals programme is structured at pwc.
I also got learn about more work that they do and have a more in depth understanding.
