The Role
I enjoyed working on a team and being given responsiblities. I learnt a lot during the internship.
There was a well run system in place to make sure I got feedback and then discussed my performance with management. The people I was working with made sure I understood what i was doing and helped me whenever i needed help.
I was mainly very busy working with different clients but near the end there were some days that were quieter.
I was given many tasks that contributed to the audit but were all checked over by someone more experienced.
I have been offered a job with them and will use these skills in my new job. This has given me a head start and a good insight into what the work is like.
The Company
It depended on what team you were on. There was a lot of variety.
There was a week of training and continued training on the job. I had a mid way review to check up on my progress and an end review. This helped me to find ways to improve.
I got a job!
