  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
  • My role consists of many different tasks and being a consultant apprenticeship it is always changing. We develop good microsoft office skills through the work on proposals and get a lot of exposure to both junior and very senior clients. I also complete my college work alongside my day to day work.

  • 7. How well does your salary/package meet your costs?
  • At the moment the salary I earn is more than I would expect for an apprenticeship however this one in particular I believe would be more challenging given the nature of the role.

  • 8. Are there many opportunities outside of work?
  • Yes we have many social events and build up networks in our company which lead to other things as we are such a large company.

    9/10

  • 9. Would you recommend PwC to a friend?
  • Yes


  • 9b. Why?
  • This is because so far my experience has been really positive and the people that work at PwC are all very inviting and supportive of everyone in the office. They don't see you as a number but a person and are a very understandable company to work for.


  • 10. What tips or advice would you give to others applying to PwC?
  • Try your best and prepare thoroughly for both your interview and assessment centre as a lot of people apply and you need to stand out and differentiate yourself.
