PwC summer internships – build your skills and confidence

PwC, short for PricewaterhouseCoopers, provides professional services to businesses in 152 countries. It’s safe to say it’s a big player – one of the “Big 4” largest consulting firms in the world, in fact. Among its clients are household names from the world of energy, manufacturing, healthcare and more. PwC invests a lot in internships, graduate schemes and apprenticeships to bring the next generation of talent onboard. This makes it a great place to start your career path!

What does a PwC internship look like?

PwC hosts over 500 paid summer internships a year. They are open to undergraduates in the penultimate year at university (or in their last year with a confirmed place on a one-year postgrad course. The important thing is you just have one more year of studying left). PwC internships run from four to ten weeks, depending on the individual placement.

You’ll receive on-the-job training and be integrated into a team from day one. You’ll get a taste of working life and what a job at PwC looks like by working on real client projects alongside talented individuals who’ll have your back throughout your internship.

What types of internship can I do?

You get to decide which area of business and sub-area or office you’re most interested in. The business areas are:

• Actuarial
• Audit
• Business Solutions
• Consulting
• Deals
• Legal
• Operate
• Risk
• Tax
• Technology

So, whether you’re curious about working in marketing, finance, business development, recruitment, analytics or one of the other myriad PwC careers, you’ll be sure to find something that will expand and support your interest!

Ideal applicant profile

PwC uses your time with them as an opportunity to assess whether you’d be a good fit for them as a permanent employee once you graduate.
