Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
Typically, I would join a call to discuss an overall picture of the audit client with the team. Then, a colleague would assign me a piece of work, which generally required some coaching. I would ask a lot of questions, but this was expected and encouraged. On some days I could join a call with the client, or complete the e-learning training.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
Lots, ability to request documents from the client and speak to them, lots of meaningful tasks, exposure to business. It was difficult to have autonomy, but that is because of the nature of audit requiring certain things.
Please rate how meaningful the work you were doing was

Yes
What advice would you give to others applying to PwC
To go for it! Also, if you get the job, it's far more casual in the office than i realised. jumpers and non-ripped jeans, rather than shirt and tie!
