The Role
The internship was great, in 5 weeks I learnt so much and got to work on great projects!
The team was constantly making sure everyone was getting on well. They were also planning social events to get to know us.
My supervisor was constantly giving me advice and guidance on how to proceed. I was also receiving regular feedback on my work.
I was quite busy on most days but some days I didn't have much to do but I guess this is normal for an intern.
I was working on a project where I had most of the responsibility.
Learned to use many tools and softwares.
The Company
The office is great and people are very nice and welcoming.
The program makes sure that the intern gets an overview of the work carried out; every person is assigned a buddy and a career coach to help them settle and get on with their work.
PwC provided access to online courses and training to help us learn and develop the skills we need to complete our work.

Working from home
Great! I'm really looking forward to joining the team upon my graduation.
The Culture
It very much depends on how social a person is. Those who like social events had the opportunity to go out with fellow colleagues.
London is an expensive city and going out around the office is generally quite expensive.
The nightlife is nice but I don't know much about it.
Not too many but if someone particularly wanted to get involved they could reach out to someone.
