  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:

    • Monday was an introduction day. Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday was shadowing PwC employees and what they do. Friday was a day dedicated to the group project, which is about technology. I didn't really have any responsibilities or specific daily tasks.
