Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
General support to risk modelling teams working with PwC clients. This includes tasks like running automations of data flow through excel spreadsheets and documenting how excel tools work. The work varies a lot and just depends on which project you join.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
Some, but given it was only a 4 week internship it's hard to be given much responsibility.
Please rate how meaningful the work you were doing was
