Summer internship programme

No need. Because you’ve done your research, you’ll apply for your first preference. In the application form we also ask you to let us know if you’d consider other areas, once you have filled that part out we'll take care of the rest.

We follow a five-step recruitment process for our Summer Internship applicants.

No, not at all! An internship is an awesome opportunity, but it's not necessary to secure a graduate role.

We'd love to connect with you! Stay updated by following our PwC Instagram, Facebook, and LinkedIn pages, as well as keeping an eye on your tertiary careers portal for any upcoming events or opportunities to speak with someone from our team.

Yes, we welcome applications from international students. However, you will need to meet the following criteria:

• You must be able to work full time (37.5 hours) from mid November to early February.

• You’ll need to provide a copy of your passport and visa during the application process.

• We suggest you contact Immigration New Zealand for more information about working in New Zealand.

Our Summer Internship is from November to February.

While we generally don't offer internships at other times, occasionally, specific roles may become available unexpectedly. We recommend keeping a close eye on our PwC Student Careers job search for any opportunities that may come up.

At PwC, we're dedicated to fostering the growth of our team members, recognising that each individual's journey is unique. Your career's success is in your hands, and we're here to support you every step of the way.

You'll have access to a variety of resources aimed at nurturing your career. Whether it's leadership development programs, technical courses, or collaborating with subject matter experts during client engagements, every day presents an opportunity for personal growth and challenge.

We encourage you to engage in annual goal-setting and regular career discussions with your performance manager. These conversations provide a platform for you to express your passions and interests, guiding your professional development journey.

Once you make your application, if you meet key criteria you will be automatically sent your online assessment and video interview to complete. If you do not receive this automatically, don’t worry! It may just be that your application needs a further review from our team before a decision is made on if you proceed to the next stage of the process. We will be in touch with you as soon as possible.

Applications for our summer internship programme will open in March 2026, but please keep an eye on our Student Careers job listings for any opportunities that may come up throughout the year.

The number changes each year depending on our business needs. Our roles fill quickly so please get your application in as soon as possible.

By applying for an internship at PwC, you’ll gain access to valuable training, hands-on client experience, coaching and development, insights into industry expertise, and opportunities for networking.
