Overview
On a day to day basis, i work on audits that are usually allocated on a weekly basis. As a placement student , we are allocated audits working alongside seniors. As we progress, we then slowly partake in audits with less support , performing these independently.
Skills
Client Management Skills Report Writing Communication Skills Having those difficult conversions
Responsibilities
During the settle in period, there is a lot of support available, however as you progress, the responsibility increases greatly. This is especially demonstrated whilst performing audits independently.
Support & Guidance
Towards the beginning of my placement, I received adequate support. I felt this could have been delivered in a greater way by providing more senior support however all in, the experience has been a great exposure to the corporate world
Culture
The culture and atmosphere was great for the majority of the role, however at times there was a certain sense of animosity. Once these concerns were brought up to management however , i felt this was better dealt with
Your Impressions
Whilst i reflect and complete the last couple of months of my placement , I believe i have enjoyed my placement. There were rocky times however once concerns were brought up , the support has been excellent and it has been a great exposure into the corporate world.
