    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.

    • I spent 3 days with PwC. My scheme was virtual so they sent us all laptops to work from. I was paired with a graduate employee in Deals along with another intern and she organised coffee chats for us with a wide array of employees within Deals, as well as a few interactive sessions with tasks from different areas within Deals. PwC also put on workshops/presentations/Q&A panels about the firm. We had an organised calendar that was full to the brim.

    • Take your time with the app-based psychometric testing as PwC want to see you put the effort in. Prepare for your interview and assessment centre as they want to see a good knowledge of the company. PwC is a very people focused firm and the main thing they want to see is that you're enthusiastic and confident.
