Overview
Got to shadow senior associates and get in loves with client meetings over the phone. It was great to learn about how client relationships are maintained and how an audit is actually done. The process was quite smooth as we learnt a lot but also had a lot of time to do our own activities including a self reflection diary. We got given a tour of the office so it was quite easy to navigate by ourselves.
Skills
I’ve learnt some accounting terminology that I wasn’t familiar with previously so I’m glad that I have learnt that. Also, I’ve developed my networking skills and my confidence levels have gone up as I spoke to a lot of the staff and got to know them quite comfortably.
Business Insight
It was great to see that PwC wasn’t just specifically just audit and there was a number of different things to do. I was amazed at the broadness of each role as even Audit was very client facing which I really liked!
Culture
Everyone was so lovely and willing to help us in any way they could. They were all stopping and having chats with us and asking about us as well as telling us about themselves. No question is a silly question here and everyone is so friendly and helpful!
Your Impressions
I really enjoyed it and I wish it was longer because I loved being in the office!
Yes
Definitely keep trying if you have been rejected and don’t worry if you don’t have a finance background because there is a role for everyone and every role can be learnt by anyone!
