PWC Accounting and Business Flying Start Programme

Good day,

I applied to the University of Reading for the BA Accounting and Business Flying Start Programme.

I completed the first assessment and made it onto the next stage which is the career conversation (video interview).

Has anyone done this stage yet? Can anyone tell me what it's like and how can I prepare best??

I've never done an interview before, so I don't know how to prepare.

Thanks

Why Flying start course is a guaranteed question and look into scenarios in a working environment. How you would work around issues and problems you are given while working.
Just some rough topics you can look into I hope it helps

Hi,
Congratulations on passing the first assessment! After how many days did you get a response or get the link for the career conversation?

Hi,

I did it on a Thursday night, got a response the following Monday morning

Thank you for your response. Congratulations on getting this far! If you do not mind me asking, how much time did you get to reflect on the interview questions for the career conversation if you have already done the interview?

Has any done the Group Assessment/ Career Focused Day if so any help on what I could do to prepare

if you havent attended the prep day i recommend you do.

if you havent attended the prep day i recommend you do.

lad come through and bless us

fineeee. i did bad on the day anyway so ill give u what they said in the prep day only.

Use preparation time wisely by picking out key points and data
help your team by structuring your meeting and keeping an eye on the time
speak clearly and concisely
smile and look at the camera and focus on others speaking
bring your key findings from your prep into discussion
ask questions to bring in quieter team members
be yourself, let your personality shine
speak up - if you dont say anything we cannot assess you but let and help others speak too.

Now, this content is all from the prep day so if you try and report me ur sad.

1 bonus tip from me - dont overprepare. It was my mistake imo

good luck guys i hope you get in

Had mine today, think it went rlly well, whatever was said in the prep meeting did help a lot. Would still recommend researching PwC's workplace culture, mission statement, etc and showcasing this in the assessment instead of memorising it. Just to display you have the qualities for a PwC professional. Good luck to everyone who got theirs coming up!
