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

  • 3. To what extent do you enjoy your programme?

  • Yes


  • 9b. Why?
  • This is a company with lots of opportunities, experience, and the ability to support you as you aim for your goals


  • 10. What tips or advice would you give to others applying to PwC?
  • Make sure to do your research. The interviews and assessment days are not there to catch you out - they just want to see that you've researched the company, your job, and that you can work well with others while not being too overbearing
