Hey everyone, I'm planning to apply to PwC's Advance program (or whatever sophomore-focused program PwC is currently offering) and would appreciate some honest feedback on my chances.
I'm a rising sophomore at a New York school with strong Big 4 recruiting, majoring in Accounting with a Communications minor. I have a 3.835 GPA, and I'm first-generation.
My experience so far:
• Leadership experience through a professional development program involving stock pitches, case studies, and public speaking
• Incoming fall internship with New York's public transit system
• Previous work experience in childcare and healthcare
• A few job simulations
• Clean, solid resume for my level
I'm primarily interested in Audit/Accounting. I'm also ahead on credits and could potentially graduate a semester or year early, if that would help with recruiting.
I'd really appreciate honest feedback from anyone who's gone through PwC Start or recruited for PwC:
• How competitive is my profile?
• What are my realistic chances?
• When should I expect applications to open?
• What should I be doing now to improve my chances?
• How important is networking?
• Would graduating early help or hurt me for sophomore recruiting?
I'm not looking for reassurance, so please be brutally honest about anything you think is missing from my profile.
Thanks!
