The Role
I really enjoyed my internship because I got lots of opportunities to audit at clients and meet new people.
Everyone was very supportive and helpful. I really liked the system of having a buddy and people's manager.
The support given to me was tremendeous- people in PwC have been very supportive and hence, it has been easy for me to work here.
I was kept occupied all day.
I was given simple EGAs and was coached through everything. Towards the end, I was given a bit more difficult work but was coached through this aswell.
This was a very good opportunity to learn about audit. Also, I have developed soft skills like communication and team working skills- which I will be able to apply throughout my life.
The Company
It was very lively and social. Everyone was very nice.
Very well organized- even before I started, I was booked in for clients. Everything was set up for me.
There was a lot of investment in terms of personal training and development- we had three days for induction and a couple of more dedicated to development day. Also, we had various e-learnings to compelte.
Flexi Time
Company Parties/Events
Very appealing- PwC is a no1 firm with lots of opportunities.
The Culture
Yes, there are end-of month drinks and other social activities going around all the time.
Living in London is very expensive.
N/A
Yes, alot of social activties going around.
