The Role
During my 6 weeks, I got flavour of tasks on different service lines (Performance assurance, risk assurance, data assurance, etc), and working on different projects I had a chance to learn about them all. Some of the jobs that I have been assigned to were quite technical which encapsulated my skill set. So I really enjoyed them a lot.
People in our team, are always happy to help not for only the jobs they are working on, but also anything that you struggle to find out which has nothing to do with their daily tasks. I never hesitated to ask a question about anything I struggle to do by myself
They were always there to help me even when I didn't specifically ask for help. If it wasn't their guidance, I would need a lot of time to finish my tasks.
I liked the work life balance I have experienced during m internship. As I was not required to do anything out of working hours, and was always busy with tasks during my day at the office.
It really depended on the tasks, on some tasks I was feeling that the documents I am working on play an important role in their audit process, and on others the things I was doing was just to escalate the process of evaluation/documentation for the client.
I have learned new programming language, improved myself on office programs, especially on excel, and so many communication and leadership skills came along during my internship.
The Company
It was quite good, although everyone was busy during the day, we always had a time to grab some drinks and catch up during the day.
It was well set up, although some trainings we received were unnecessary and not used at all during our internship period, I assume they can be adjusted so training reflects the real work we are doing here.
Our first week was entirely devoted to training, and during the rest of our internship we had a chance to attend in several events organised by PwC, and know more about how company operates across the UK.
