Overview of Experience

Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
I and a small group of interns spoke with professionals at the company online as well as sitting in on meeting and asking many questions to different people in PwC from graduates to partners and learning different inside and outside the audit role
What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
I appreciated the honesty of workers at PwC and after joining the programme with very little knowledge of the audit role, I can now say that I have gained enough knowledge to start planning potential areas I would like to work in after graduation realistically. The work is so vast it was very difficult getting a strong grasp of what is done as each person and project is different but it has motivated me to try and get more hands on experience

What was the company culture and general atmosphere like?
Company culture is very lively and friendly. There is a lot invested into company bonding and wellbeing. I know that if I joined I won't be alone as people would have taken the route I have and many who have been there longer and relate and empathise. There are many opportunities to reach out to senior members as well
