Overview
Get an insight into a career in the DDV LoS at PWC. Shadowing a variety of people from different areas within DDV through Coffee talks. Case study analysis and presentation, as well as a feedback session. Pre-recorded Lectures. Listening in to meetings and client calls.
Skills
I have developed my case study analysis skills by applying them to a Deals case. I have learned the basics of accounting. I have learned how to work well in a team and encourage collaboration.
Business Insight
There was a good overview of the career pathway you can potentially follow, but more importantly, it emphasised that there is no 'one size fits all' at PwC. I really enjoyed learning about the business in such an immersive way because it gave me direct insight into the people at PwC. There was a good amount of information regarding the Graduate Scheme and how to get onto it.
Culture
The culture was very positive, inclusive and welcoming. The atmosphere was comfortable and natural, which made it easy to ask questions.
Your Impressions
I really enjoyed this insight. I thoroughly enjoyed the ability to connect with people, and their approach to interns, because I felt valued and seen.
Yes
Be prepared for the length of the application process, but it is worth it in the end! Don't be discouraged if one aspect of your application does not go as you wanted it to. Try to get a little bit of insight into the particular sector you are applying to because choosing it, as it does restrict you in your choices of Graduate schemes/Internship opportunities.
