PwC will train new recruits online and offer summer work experience digitally

Summary: 

Deloitte, EY, KPMG and PwC – four accounting firms which are also major graduate recruiters – have not disclosed any changes to their graduate recruitment schemes, despite cutting pay for their partners by between 20% and 25%. However, PwC has cancelled its summer internship for 400 undergraduates. Those students have been offered alternatives which could include automatic entry to the firm’s graduate programme in 2021. PwC’s new recruits will be trained online, and the summer work experience programme will be offered digitally to all 5,500 students who originally applied for the 600 places.
