About My Department

     PwC offers us interns three departments to choose from namely Assurance, Tax and Advisory. Within those departments are more specific areas grouped based on the client's industry such as:

1) Construction, Leisure/Logistics, Automotive/Agriculture & Services (CLAS)
2) Energy, Utilities, Media & InfoComm (EUMI)
3) Financial Services (FS)
4) Middle Market & Growing (MMG)

The illustration below (based on PwC Malaysia's website) might provide a clearer overview of the departments:


    Since I intend on pursuing audit in the future, I chose the Assurance department where I was then assigned to both MMG and CLAS clients. PwC's Assurance services are not just all about numbers but also to understand the client's business in order to offer better advice. It allows you to deal from the first-line workers to the top management of a company.

    Both industries are quite different from each other with MMG jobs being quite fast paced in nature while CLAS jobs have a slightly longer life span. However, MMG jobs are said to be quite repetitive so by doing a couple of MMG jobs, one can already get the gist of it.
