Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
3/5
I was an FS1 and was responsible for the support of the team, completing EGA'S and meeting deadlines. I also was assigned prepaid expenses, accrued expenses and unpredictability on my second client and completed this in a timely manner
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
3/5
My first client was not so enjoyable, as the team didn't sit together so it was difficult to communicate effectively, despite this my connected development was always available, however my second client I really enjoyed as I was sat with a team and was coached with a more hands on approach which I benefited from.

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?

How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?

I think it helps but the work is different from what we learn. While i think the qualification helps build the base knowledge, the work and training provided by PwC was more beneficial in this aspect
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
5/5
N/A
