The Role
I came into the programme wanting to learn more about the field of audit and believed I have successfully done so
Being assigned to one client for 4 weeks gave me the chance to get to know my team and I enjoyed my time spent working with them. They guided me through my work and never failed to always show me their appreciation for my work.
My career coach was very helpful and patiently gave a lot of advice throughout the 6 weeks. I'm grateful and greatly appreciate his support.
There were some days that I did not have as much to do as I had wanted but this was something I expected given that I only had limited knowledge of the system and different EGAs.
I was given a comfortable amount of responsibility, though I believe more would be given when I join the firm as a full-timer - something that I look forward to.
As someone who is keen to come back to the firm again when I graduate, I believe whatever skills or knowledge I had picked up from my internship would greatly help.
The Company
The company has provided me with many forms of support which I am thankful for given I was completely new to the environment

Subsidised Canteen
