Overview
I worked on various tax projects helping with IPO steps papers and tax fact books for divestitures. I called HMRC requesting information on clients forms and was able to sit in on client meetings
Skills
I have developed my tax knowledge and also various analysis skills. I gained experience on various IT packages and was able to build my network
Responsibilities
I was able to attend client talks with PwC directors and some of the clients on the calls were CFOs which was fantastic experience. In the tasks I was given I felt I was given a good level of responsibility although my basic tax knowledge did restrict the jobs I could do
Support & Guidance
I received great support from my buddy, career coach and various people on the team that I was working with. Senior people were very willing to take the time to talk to you if you made the effort to reach out to them
Culture
Very friendly culture and managed to form strong relationships with other interns despite the internship being online. Unfortunately, I couldn't get involved with any clubs or socials due to Covid
Your Impressions
I really enjoyed my internship and would absolutely recommend it. It's great to try out the job before committing to a graduate role to find out if it is the right job for you
Yes
Take your time to thoroughly research the company. The website is great for this and look at the range of opportunities as one will probably be interesting to you
