The Role
Challenging but enjoyable.
Not just making coffee.
Was given advice but also independence.
Was pretty hectic.
A little but not loads. I guess you need more training.
Spent alot of money on corporate role playing training
The Company
It was an office atmosphere but nothing too tedious.
Good communication before and after.
They spent a fair whack on external dedicated management training
If you enjoy accountancy and can get in with any of the big 4, you're pretty set.
The Culture
Had some mixers with staff etc.
London is London...
... But when you can afford it it's worth it.
I didn't really hear of much.
