Risk Assurance Intern

June - August 2018 • Tampa, FL

What I liked

The culture of the company and how they care for your personal and professional development.

What I wish was different

That the experience could have been ongoing.

Advice

They don't expect you to know anything. Interning at a Big 4 can feel intimidating, but a lot of the people have been in those shoes and are willing and able to be your mentors. In fact, they pair you with a relationship partner, a career coach (usually a manager), and a peer buddy (usually a associate).

Core Assurance Intern

June - August 2018 • Louisville, KY

What I liked

I liked that they treated us as equals and allowed us to work on similar projects that other staff were and did not give us busy work. I also really enjoyed that they offered you with clear categories of areas to improve in in a quick and professional fashion. They sit down with you face to face and discuss how you can improve to better yourself and make your time at PwC fulfilling.

What I wish was different

I wish I could've gotten the chance to visit a few of the offices near by that worked on the same audit client to see what the other locations are like.

Advice

Definitely go somewhere you've never been before, I wish I had done it to not only expand my network but to also just experience new things. PwC offers so much to their interns and staff and I am very glad I made the choice to join their team.

Risk Assurance Intern

June - August 2018 • San Jose, CA

What I liked

PwC gave us actual associate level work. The internship gave a sneak peek of what is actually to come during full-time work.

What I wish was different

Overall the internship was great and offered many different learning experiences. If I could change one thing it would be to have a chance to pick from a few of different teams to work with during the internship.

Advice

For any internship you participate in, be involved and don't be timid. If you are invited to socials or events after work go to them! Do not think just because it is an internship and you are getting paid that you cannot have fun.

Assurance Intern

Truly a hands-on experience. I was able to work through an entire Quarter 2 Review of an audit for a smaller public company by myself after I showed the manager that I was able to handle the work.

What I wish was different

I wish we would've spent more time at Disney! Four days was not long enough.

Advice

Be outgoing and really get to know the members of each team you work with, and do not be afraid to ask questions. A great way to get to know your team is to invite them to lunch while you're working.
