About You
I thoroughly enjoyed the insight as it provided me an insight into a future career which I have happily now secured as a result of the placement.
I felt extremely valued at the firm as I was given real responsibility working on real client projects.
I received excellent guidance and support throughout the insight being placed alongside two PwC employees who answered all my questions. Additionally at any point I was able to contact the Student HR.
I believe I developed my accountancy skills during the week as I practiced them throughout working with real information not just practice examples as in University. This has also assisted me as it has led to be specialising in my studies further in Finance.
The Company
The insight was well structured with both an induction and "wash up" at the end,
I was based out of the office at a clients site therefore I can only reflect on the individuals I worked with which was excellent.
They has committed to putting me through my ACA in accountancy.
As I was able to work with real client information on a real job it provided me with an excellent understanding of the day to day work.
At the end of the week I was offered a job securing my future career path.
Everything Else
I met with the department employees and Director and additionally Student Recruitment.
