Has anyone recently joined pwc? How long does background check take? When should I expect to receive equipment? Thank you in advance for sharing!

Background check is fairly quick (a day or two if everything checks out). You will receive your equipment about 1-2 weeks before you join. Your credentials will be emailed to you the day or the night before your start date. I would leave the laptop alone until you get your credentials along with detailed instructions (which are very helpful) to set up your laptop. Welcome to PwC!

Don’t worry - it was a extended firm holiday so most likely the delay. Very possible your background info may not have been submitted until this week

I have resigned from my current organisation and have asked for an early relieving.

Can someone help me understand that legality of his adamance?

I was told that even if the dates don't overlap when they are announced sometime next year, I may still not be able to do both because of reasons related to the firm?
If this is the case then I may have look for another internship that I can do before the fellowship.
