Women in Business
We’re committed to improving gender balance at PwC and to increasing the visibility of female leaders across the firm. While women make up 44% of our early careers hires, female talent remains underrepresented in our industry, especially at senior levels.
This programme is designed to inspire and support undergraduates interested in professional services, while giving them the opportunity to hear from women at PwC about their careers and experiences. Come and meet the inspiring women who are leading PwC into the future.
Economics Consulting
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
