I know that it probably is due to both factors, but which is it more of?
Going out to work for my first full time job soon and I'm pretty scared and wish to know what to expect roughly!
Thank you  |
My personal experience with PWC is 95% option 1 and 5% option 2.
The first few weeks when you are taking on an assignment the learning curve is there because you don't know the process and what to look for.
After that for the next 4 years is really just mind numbing SOP, checklist, standard interviews and really voluminous work.
Was it worth it? Not really IMO.
