I enjoy this programme a lot. Although the work and hours can be difficult you are paid overtime at a standard rate of near 10 pounds per hour.

very well

As much support as you require is provided by the employer

I do a degree with lecturers who support us as much as we require

Having a background knowledge of the field I work in has given me an understanding and appreciation of the work I perform which in turn allows me to build up new skills quickly

There are lots of socials and activities which are inclusive of all to get involved in

Yes

It allows me to enter the work field whilst studying at uni. I also understand and get paid experience throughout my uni degree which not only helps with exams but also helps fund my accomodation and living expenses.

Practice group exercises - this includes comprehension skills and reading and retaining information quickly and being able to present your findings to a small group (don't dismiss peoples ideas on your findings and encourage questions if people haven't understood anything - don't be scared to ask questions when people ask for questions) Practice a Situational-based interview technique - this is in the form of a situational based interview where they will ask "tell me a time when..." and name a situation such as tell me a time when you had to work with someone with a different work style to you and you have to give an answer in the S.T.A.R. format (Situation - what was the activity eg work/school/sport etc... Task - what was the goal eg project/cup final etc... Action - what did you (YOU SPECIFICALLY) do to ensure your work styles could work in harmony eg communicate with the other person asked how they want to approach this and then say how you altered your workstyle to get the best out of you and the other person in this section you can demonstrate multiple skills such as leadership, flexibility, adaptability, communication so make this point your most developed point.... RESULT - how did the outcome of the situation work out as a result of the action you took eg how did the other person work well, did they feedback to you, did you achieve your goal if not did you and the other person develop in anyway, if you did achieve your goal how did you develop and how did the other person react to your action etc.... Also have a knowledge of what audit is, what pwc is (what do they do, whats their culture, what attracted you to the big 4 and pwc specifically, how you think it will benefit you, how you will benefit the firm etc) Make sure you have 3/4/5 questions for the interviewer at the end of the interview AND making conversation with the interview before and after the interview is important (although it is not graded first impressions last and people will remember you made a bit more effort) .
