    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
  • We spent the day with the female executives who work in the Assurance sector at EY, working on case studies and listening to talented keynote speakers.


    Skills

  • 2. Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
  • Coming from a STEM background, I wasn't entirely sure of what working in the Assurance sector involved. The insight program helped me gain a deeper understanding into the field, which also helped me decide whether or not this was something I wanted to pursue in the future once I graduate.

    Business Insight

  • 3. What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
  • It was extremely enlightening to say the least. As a first-year undergraduate, I hadn't given much thought about what I want to do after university, so learning about the different roles within Assurance itself was informative and helped me learn about a path that I could potentially take once I graduate.
