I had a really good time at PWC, it exceeded my expectations in almost every way. I was a Data Assurance intern, so I spent all my time working with the data team. They were nice, welcoming and helpful and made every effort that I should have an interesting and enjoyable time. Most of my enjoyment came from having a good time with my team, the good work atmosphere, the variety of projects I was exposed to and socializing with other interns. The only part I didn't enjoy was some of the work I was given was very repetitive, and although effort was put in to make sure I understood how it fitted into the larger scope of the project, it still got dull on occasion. I would like to point out that as a Data Assurance intern my experience was quite different to interns in other areas of the business, those working in general assurance had very varied views on if they enjoyed it or not.

Very much, Everyone in the team made effort to get to know me and to find work for me to do. I felt like my contribution to each project was valued, and my efforts were always noted and appreciated. Colleagues went out of their way to give me an interesting time, including taking me on a trip to visit client sights in France and the Netherlands, arranging for me to shadow managers at partners, letting me go to meetings and taking time in them to explain things to me. I was also made to feel very included in the social life of the team, I was always invited to go for lunch and drinks with them.

The support as great. I could ask anyone in the team for help and no one ever made me feel like I was annoying. The managers, senior manager and occasionally the partner would all regularly check on how I was doing and offer assistance. For each project I worked there was always an associate who I could sit with who would help me and answer all my questions. I also had a great buddy to i met with every week, chatted to me every day and made sure i was happy

This varied greatly, When I went on a business trip or was shadowing I was very busy, sometimes literally running around. When I was in the office with an ongoing task I was a good level of busy, with enough to do to keep me occupied and make the day go quickly. When I was between tasks I didn't have much to do, I occasionally (twice a week maybe) had nothing to do for a few hours while I waited for someone to be ready to give me something new to do.

Most of the work I did was data-entry type or testing, which had a very low level of responsibility, but towards the end of the internship when I had learnt enough I was allowed to do some proper journals work for a client which had a higher level of responsibility. I was also trusted to represent the team and the firm at client meetings which was cool.

I learnt all the classic professional skills like teamwork, functioning well in an office environment, asking for feedback etc - which are of course all important. The useful practical skills I learnt were mainly excel and ACL (a specific accounting coding language), both of which I received good one to one training for, and which will be very useful in getting a grad job in the field.

It was a fairly normal, hard working office environment,

Well. I was assigned a people manager and a buddy to look after me. The first week was very structured induction and training with the other interns before we joined the office. There was an intern project running for the whole of the six weeks that we could work together to contribute to which was was very well organised and there was a big presentation day for it at the end of the internship. I was given a company laptop and had proper staff accounts set up for me on most of the systems. There was a good amount of communication from those running the internship for the whole time.

The whole first week of the six week internship was training and induction, it was well organised and made the rest of the internship a lot easier than it would have been otherwise. We had three days of residential training at a hotel with all the interns from around the country. This was a good mix of technical training, learning about the firm and a chance to get to know the other interns.

I have yet to hear if I have a job offer as a result of the internship, The grad scheme looks good and I had a good experience, so if I receive and offer I will accept it.

A group of interns had lunch together most days, I joined them whenever I did not go out for lunch with my team. People also organized drinks or cinema trips about once a week after work for who ever wanted to go which was a nice way to catch up with the other interns as we were quite spread out in the office or out at clients so didn't tend to bump into each other very often.

Central London, so very expensive. My commute cost me around 拢100 a week, drinks are about 拢5 each and a meal in a standard restaurant is 拢10-20, eating in the office canteen was cheaper and still good. However the internship was fairly well paid so these costs were easily covered with some left over.

Central london, always something to do!

There were a few things to do, we were invited to partake in the office sports day and BBQ, and the firm wide "PWC games". The level of activities depended in what social group you were put in, mine had drinks every other week and a weekly lunch time run. There would also be 'pop up' events before or after work which was basically a seminar about a current area of interest either in the business or in wider culture.
