Technology Discovery Programme participant Review

Meeting top professionals in the field and learning about what they do in their day to day life. I was inspired by many of the speakers invited and impressed at the live demos been given. I learned about how inclusivity is important to the company culture and that everyone is accepted at EY. This was amazing and comforting to hear. I also was invited for a celebration day which was very fun and interactive as I got to play a fun game with a new team of friends.

I have developed confidence in my abilities and learned that I should do what I enjoy. I also learned to communicate and interact with others during the day and also enjoyed many team-building exercises. I also learned about opportunities to build my personal brand. This was essential, learning how to market yourself to others. This was a huge skill I took away from the speaker who delivered this segment. I found it very inspiring and enjoyable.

I learned so much about the different fields and how they all interlink with one another. I also learned that technology is incorporated in many of the roles and so i found that it was quite exciting for me as I had all kinds of options to consider. I gained an understanding of how deep technology has penetrated into business and far moving it can be. It was also really amazing and inspiring to see top women professionals doing an amazing job for the firm.

There was an amazing acceptance of all kinds of people, no matter what their background. I found this very reassuring. There was staff always willing to help when there was a problem so it made it easy to work things out and stay calm. The company culture is very team work base and so everyone has a connection with each other even if they are on different teams. This is something that i connected with greatly

I enjoyed it very much as I got an insight into all the areas of the business with regards to technology. This event genuinely made me excited for my future career and showed me that I had a long and exciting future ahead! This is a life-changing opportunity that i recommend all new university students to apply for. This insight was also virtual, but was still amazing and i could see that a lot of preparation went into it.
