The Role
Lots going on and lots to keep you busy, fast moving and interesting.
Everyone there was very friendly and there to help with any questions I had.
Very structured timetable and they were very friendly and approachable.
Lots to do but lots of opportunities for short breaks to make sure it was not all too much at once.
A fair amount of responsibility was given, I feel they gave the appropriate amount so I did not feel too overloaded but was still doing something worthwhile.
Learnt invaluable communication and presentational skills and also how to network. Brilliant.
The Company
Quite intense at times but was necessary considering the time constraints.
Most organised insight day I have attended. Lots of things to do and not many boring presentations to listen to!
Many people took time out of their working day to come and spend time with us and talk to us about EY. This was one of the best parts of the programme.
National Travel
Very appealing, the event attended enables us to skip first stages when reapplying and they seemed really keen for me to apply in the future.
The Culture
Everyone on the day was very friendly and have made some good contacts from when I was there.
