I am interested in a short term international secondment, say 6-12 months at most.
How easy or difficult is it to secure one? I work in transfer pricing which is very similar in most jurisdictions so it will not be a steep learning curve for me.

It depends on the place you’re wanting to go to. There needs to be a need. I would go ask your counselor as they’re the one who has to initiate the request. I’d go checkout the mobility4u page if you haven’t already.

They are more likely to go for the 12 months +. Depending on where you want to go it’s very expensive for both PwC US and the other firm. 6 month secondments are a hard sell outside AC or a really desperate member firm.

Right now, I’d say it’s pretty difficult. Secondments are very expensive for the firm, so unless you’re a top performer plus there’s a business need, It will be hard to get. Check out the mobility page

And we just lay there as I cried, and then got up. Had a drink.

Said boyfriend left years ago, and now I have a wonderful man who just asked me what type of dance lessons I want for our wedding next year.

Don’t give up.
