    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
  • As an intern you start out shadowing plenty of people which involves joining them on the calls/meetings they have for the day. Then you can get more involved and pick up various bits of work when they arise which keeps you busy day to day. This involves things like completing billing spreadsheets, researching potential clients, reviewing contracts etc.

Speaking to as many people as you can and expanding your network will give you more opportunities for development, and you will enjoy it more when making genuine connections.
