Intern Review

Mainly looking into client accounts and comparing two accounts with one another to validate the information and ensuring they all match. Attending client meetings and obtaining information of them that'll be helpful when completing their audit. Going through numbers with colleagues to ensure they are correct

Yes in the 4 weeks I have been here, I have increased my communication skills, I've been able to work with so many people from different backgrounds, not just people in audit but people in tax and consulting to get projects done. Also organisation is a key skill which I developed during my time here, there's so much information presented to you so you have keep everything tidy.

In terms of leading projects, not much responsibility was provided as we are not trained to do so , however the work I had completed was of significant importance to clients so in that way I was given responsibility over something that could easily affect a company.

I got loads of support. From the first day you are assigned a buddy who guides you around the office, help you if you are stuck on something whether it is the tasks your on or if you can't get the coffee machine to run. A career coach guides you though your work, helps you set your goals and gives feedback to you.

The company is really big on diversity, they have loads of different societies for different groups who run events from time to time. There are loads of opportunities for charity work, 6 days a year you can participate in charity projects which is really fun. During lunch, there are places where you can play pool or table tennis depending on the office you're in

The work was very enjoyable, loads to do and was very varied/ You're always working with different people and i found that everyone is approachable so never ever feel afraid to ask. I hit the goals that I assigned myself before the internship i believe and got everything i wanted from the 4 weeks and definitely would go back. It's a fantastic opportunity to build your network and soft skills as a student

Yes

- Ensure the values align to your personal values - Organisation and time management for the assessment centre are very important as you'll be doing multiple tasks throughout the day - If i reapplied I would research audit more and get a good understanding of what it is - I'd love to have known that it is busier than you think - I joined because of the opportunities the company has
