Summer Internship Programme

What does the programme entail?

At PwC, we place a lot of emphasis on our Summer Internship Programme, as most of our Summer Interns progress to become Trainee Accountants with the firm.

Through the Summer Internship Programme, high calibre university students have the opportunity to develop their employability skills, by working for a few weeks in one of our Lines of Service. The programme is designed to give students a real-life experience of what a graduate career with PwC would be like.

University students who manage to secure a position in this programme, and perform well during their internship, may return back to their final year of studies with a job offer upon graduation.

When is the programme offered?

The programme is offered during the summer months. 

How many university students are recruited?

Each year, approximately 25 high-calibre university students are recruited, after successfully going through the recruitment process.
