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

    • The insight week began with an induction day and finished with a day where we wrapped up the whole week and we did some presentations. The middle three days were spent shadowing a PwC employee, which I found insightful. My 'buddy' that I shadowed was incredibly helpful when answering my questions.
