over this placement i habve learnt various skills such as skills in excel, how to use the programme, al the different shortcuts etc, as well as how to use aura
I would say that overall i did enjoy my placement. The hours were sometimes long but this was expected and the work was good. I am looking forward to my next placement
I would say that I value PricewaterhouseCoopers very highly as a firm and employer. I would really like to stay on at PricewaterhouseCoopers in the future
I would say that the structure of the programme with having half my time at newcastle university and the other half at PricewaterhouseCoopers is good.
I would say that i recieved alot of support from my training provider throughout the whole placement both from newcastle university and pricewaterhousecoopers
I would say that i recieved alot of support from my training provider throughout the whole placement both from newcastle university and pricewaterhousecoopers
overall looking at all the costs involved from travel costs to social costs i would that that the salary should be slightly higher. London is very expensive to live in.
There are alot of opportunities outsid of work both from a social and work point of view. This is something i would liketo get involved with in the future.
Yes
PricewaterhouseCoopers holds a very strong place in the market as they grow in number each year. There are so many opportunities for people to take up.
In terms of advice i would suggest people to apply for PwC directly or through a joint degree programme. This goes for all the big 4 audit firms.
