    The Role

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy your work placement or internship?

    • It has a very organised system for interns to follow and hence, anytime we won't feel lost. Along the way, there will always be someone that can help us, technically or relationship-wise.

  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued by your colleagues?

    • Although I am just an intern that can only do very basic stuff, my colleagues always trust me and assign different jobs to me. After finishing them, they will say 'thank you' and make me feel valued.

  • 3. To what extent were you given support and guidance by management/your supervisor(s)?

    • One of the most important culture in PwC is 'asking question'. Under this influence, I am not afraid of asking any 'silly' question and this really help me improve a lot more faster.
