    The Role

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy your work placement or internship?
  • It's very realistic of a true working experience and thus can be difficult to initially cope with however I think ultimately makes it a far better eperience than if you were getting tea and coffee for people 8 hours a day. It's a great experience if you want a true understanding of what working for PwC would be like.

    3/5

  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued by your colleagues?
  • Every single person at PwC was excessively nice and helpful and makes sure you are doing valuable work that has a clear and direct effect on the final goal of the team.

    3/5

  • 3. To what extent were you given support and guidance by management/your supervisor(s)?
  • There is a clear chain of support for each engagement and in a more general sense too.

    3/5

  • 4. How busy were you on a daily basis?
  • Very. My first ever week of working (at PwC) was in excess of 60 hours with 2 hours travelling each way. Other days were much lighter too however.

    3/5

  • 5. How much responsibility were you given during your placement?
  • I think I was given a fair bit but everything I produced was reviewed at a latter stage. Much of the job was client facing and they were not at all afraid to leave me alone in a meeting with a client.

    3/5

  • 6. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and training you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?
  • Extremely helpful. They will definitely make my final year a more efficien and productive one.
