Overview of Experience

Please give an overview of the virtual internship and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
The internship started with an induction which included setting up the online technology systems PwC uses and informing us what to expect on a day-to-day basis. The virtual experience meant that we were on calls via Google Meet throughout the internship, which entailed Q&A's, networking sessions with associates to partners and practical experiences working on the different divisions in the Deals Line of Service.
What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
It was interesting to hear that many senior associates had the opportunity to switch roles to a completely different department. The advice given on the potential roles within PwC was desirable, with the best piece of advice being to balance specialising and variety in business roles.

What was the company culture and general atmosphere like?
All of the staff were very friendly, understanding and provided guidance to all interns in the programme. When Q&A sessions had ran out of time they were more than happy to answer any further questions via social media (such as on LinkedIn).
