About You
It was the best insight programme I have attended so far. The skills that I developed will be extremely useful for my future career and I have met some lovely genuine people.
Everybody had ample time to get to know each other and the PwC staff were extremely friendly and considerate.
The whole event was very well structured and any queries I had were resolved immediately.
The insight into assurance and tax has definitely given me an advantage as we were able to learn about the typical tasks encountered as a trainee from realistic case studies. Also lessons learnt on the commercial awareness workshop can be applied to any job application.
The Company
The structure was set out as soon as we arrived so we had a clear awareness of what we were expected to do during the programme.
The atmosphere was exceptional, very amicable and highly professional as one would expect with PwC.
PwC evidently spent significant time and money holding the event and this made me feel highly valued to be part of the programme.
The case studies and role plays provided a general understanding of a full time role with the firm.
The insight showed how PwC staff uphold their values and it was evident from every associate I engaged with.
The programme has certainly helped me to decide my future career path.
Everything Else
All travel expenses were reimbursed and food, drink and accommodation were all paid for by PwC.
Plenty of opportunities.
The dinner with the PwC Partners is a particular highlight and it was great to get to know so many talented people.
Yes PwC offers a wide range from sports to charity.
Absolutely!
