About You
Definitely , the Talent Academy is a very insightful programme-3 days loaded with many enriching activities from services lines activities simulation to personal skills development such as personal branding.
The support system in term of the PwC people, knowledgeable people in the different services lines, was incredible.
All queries were effortlessly answered by PwC people. Advice pertaining to one's professional interests was readily given.
Looking back, it has been a very enriching experience. The knowledge acquired- valuation of companies, reporting of activities- is extremely useful especially for my finance modules.
The Company

Despite the long hectic days packed with different activities, we had time to socialise. The 'photo booth' was a new concept introduced by PwC. Many took real pleasure in it.
Efforts made by PwC to retain the best.
Partners representing different lines of business would readily share their working experience with us.
Culture of PwC was highlighted during every activity. 'Iconic' is a word to be embraced!
Very valuable content in deciding one's career path.
Everything Else
