The Role
Over the course of the two weeks, I was able to meet a wide variety of people and get involved in numerous clients.
I was always thanked for the effort I put into the work and felt that each piece of work I produced was much appreciated.
I had a mentor who was in regular contact to check if everything was going well.
Extremely, the day was non stop and although the work was sometiems mundane there was always something to do.
A lot, considering I was an intern I was always given a task to do that played a role in the overall audit for the client.
The skills were not primarily focused for my degree in particular but instead for my personal skills such as team work and time management.
The Company
Each team was from a broad background and everyone was always friendly and welcoming which made the working day go much quicker.
The whole two weeks I spent my time across client sites with different teams, there was no hiccups or interruptions in between each one.
