Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
4/5
As a PwC Apprentice currently on an internal role, I start my day by having a meeting with the different stakeholders of my team to discuss what we need to get done for the day. This could be anything from creating a slide deck to plugging in different data
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
5/5
Can not recommend it anymore, one of the only apprenticeships that does not lock you in to that specific career and can keep your options open.
Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
5/5
The amount of new skills and old skills developed is immense, not only are my soft and interpersonal skills being developed but so are my technical skills with the way I go around different platforms like Excel
Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
5/5
Very well structured with each lecture and each huddle been planned a year before and the timetable sent out way ahead of time. There is a fine line between the work and the studies.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
4/5
Loads of support is received, I get an external Career Coach, an internal coach and a separate relationship lead who all support any ideas I have or any questions I have
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
4/5
I have loads of calls and huddles with my training provider, I also have lectures a month before my exam and separate time blocked out throughout my week to work on my qualifications
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
4/5
It helps me with the use of technical terms, because of my qualifications I can converse at a high level with any stakeholders.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
4/5
Theres so many external things to get involved with, we have a variety of communities which means everyone has somewhere they can jump in and get stuck in. Going 'above and beyond' is looked at as really great in and around the firm.
Recommendations & Advice
Would you recommend PwC to a friend?
Yes
Why?
Support, Brand, Prestige and the inclusive and diverse environment that likes to see you do your best and excel wherever you are.
What tips or advice would you give to others applying to PwC?
Just be yourself, be authentic and if it works out well, if not it just was not meant to be.
