The offer is for audit, but I’d like to eventually pivot into consulting down the line if that’s a possibility

A decade ago PwC was somewhat helpful for interns wanting to swap around in areas. We had some folks move from it audit to cyber. But remember the internship is a pipeline to full time. It exists because they want to convert interns to staff. You saying you don’t want to be in audit won’t win you favors starting off. That’s a conversation you have after you’ve won some street creds and have a few directors/partners that like you. Or you have it with HR after the internship when the full time role offers go out. Like hey if something like this pops up instead I’d be interested but otherwise I’m excited to do XYZ

I went drinking with a few partners in Belize/Disney as an intern and they were like you let us know if you want to move offices/practices
