business insight week student Review

I shadowed different 'buddies' that worked in different business areas and was set tasks that represented day to day life in their field.

I learnt a lot about people and networking, presentations to clients, team management and time management

i really enjoyed my work experience and overall i found it incredibly useful in terms of what i personally would like to do post a level

my work experience was very well organised, my buddies all had structured days for me with plenty of tasks to complete.

i learnt a lot about both the culture and what its like to work at PwC. its incredibly easy going and flexible hours are luxuries many enjoy. i also found out about how you grow in each profession, whether it be exams or experience.

it helped me a lot. before this week i had no idea what i wanted to do for a career, even whether i wanted to go to uni or not. since beginning this week though, i now have a strong plan that i cant wait to go for.

Yes, i was paid

yes, lots of opportunities for this, it just depended on how keen you were

Yes

because it gives a great insight to how different types of office work play out in practice. additionally though everyone is incredibly friendly and experienced and will give great advice

just be yourself, be confident and make the most of it!
