I really enjoyed my internship. It has given me a real insight into VAT tax at PwC. The internship exceeded expectations and has helped me decide what I would like to do after university.

The majority of people in the office made me feel welcome and helped me feel at ease throughout my first few weeks. I came at a fairly busy time for VAT so I understood that colleagues were very busy. I was invited on office socials etc.

I was given enough support and guidance for me to carry out daily tasks and felt that I could ask questions to a number of people if I didn't undertstand what I was asked to do.

I was kept busy throughout my internship. I was given a variety of tasks from a variety of people which meant sometimes I was very busy. I sometimes work half an hour/ an hour overtime but out of choice.

I was given a fair amount of responsibility. I was asked to draft emails, proposals, VAT forms etc. that were sent out to actual clients, however they were always checked before being sent out so there wasn't too much pressure.

The skills I learnt will probably not be very useful to my degree as it is not related to the internship. It will however be very useful if I get offered a graduate job at PwC or get a job in another finance/business related firm.

The general atmosphere was usually fine. It was sometimes a bit quiet as various people were on holiday etc. People were also very busy which meant there was not always opportunities to have conversations with people.

It was organised very well. The first three days were spent in Northampton where we got to know other interns and learnt about out various fields. We did team building activities and had a networking event with partners of the firm. We then had two days in the office having further inductions which entailed learning how to use the computers and having a tour of the office. Throughout our internship we had a buddy and a people manager and we could go them if we had any questions.

PwC invested a lot in our training and developement. As mentioned we had a three day residential where we learn the basics of our chosen fields.

Hopefully, I will have a graduate job offer from them by the end of the internship.

Yes, we regularly met up at lunchtime and often went out for drinks/dinner.

Birmingham is fairly expensive but if you know the right places to go it can be ok. Much cheaper than London.

The nightlife in Birmingham is very good. There are many nice cocktail bars and pubs near to the office.

There was an office meal and social event. There were also sports clubs to get involved with.
