Your internship at PwC 

An internship at PwC is different: exciting, diverse and challenging. Whether in audit, tax, consulting or digital services, you will find the internship that fits your educational background and interests. We will give you in-depth insights into our everyday work and support you in gaining as much practical experience as possible.

How do we do this? At PwC, your coach and your buddy are always there to support you – no matter what. It is important to us that you get the most out of your internship, professionally and personally. We want to support you and your development. That’s why our internship programme offers social and networking events and workshops in addition to your daily learning on the job.

We offer internships in all our line of services: Assurance, Tax & Legal Services, Internal Firm Services, Deals, Consulting and Digital Services.


Why an internship at PwC?

Our aim is for you to experience an exciting and challenging internship and to develop personally and professionally. And we want you to get the best out of this experience – together.

Our values and behaviours define us and shape our expectations about working with our clients and each other. So, challenge the status quo and try new things. Innovate, test and learn from failure. Keep an open mind to the possibilities in every idea.
