Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
3/5
Very well organised, although the allocation of clients to the interns may need some improvement as sometimes after signing off with one client, the interns are left without work to be done indefinitely, unless they chase for work through different departments. Overall, well structured but may need a bit of improvement.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
5/5
Received a lot of support by one of my managers and all Senior Associates I have interacted with, as well as my connected development and career coach.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
5/5
Received a lot of support from my one of my managers regarding working towards my qualifications.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
5/5
Since, both my qualification and job at PWC are interrelated, I was able to consistently build a connection with both the study material as well as the job performed, allowing me to have a deeper understanding of both.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
3/5
Lots of social events, however not enough time available to attend the events as the schedule keeps us busy.
