Tax Summer Intern Review

It was fantastic. From day one I got involved with client work. The 6 weeks went by so fast.

I was made to feel welcome immediately. It felt like a family, everyone was willing to help you, whatever the size of the problem you were facing.

My supervisor was second to none. I was supported throughout the entire internship. I met regularly with my supervisor to discuss my progress and was provided regular feedback.

As it was not the busiest time of the year there was not always an abundance of work. However, this gave me opportunities to do Web Based Learning and learn more about the constant development EY provide to all their staff.

I was given the right amount of reponsibility. I felt I was really involved and providing quality work for clients that they would appreciate.

My confidence in my own ability has rocketed. The feedback I received throughout made me aware that my work was really appreciated.

The office atmosphere is great. It was nothing like I thought it would be. It is an open plan office, you sit amongst partners and directors which makes you more aware of the everyday runnings of the department at all levels. Obviously, there is serious work to be done, but the office life is never dull.

Once you receive an offer on internship, you will be invited for 3 days induction in a UK location. The induction is well organised, it allows you to get to meet all the other interns starting at the same time as you. There is a fancy dress evening which is really fun, a three course meal, games, information about the following 6 weeks and so much more. All your questions will be answered at the induction. When you arrive at your first day of work you will be introduced to your counsellor who will support you the whole time.

You don't realise how much EY are investing in you until you get there. The variety of work really allows yu to develop many different areas. If you mention that you would like to improve in a particular area, they will ensure that you are provided an opportunity to do so.

I was offered a job witht the firm and I accepeted straight away, The whole internship made me want a job with EY more than ever.

We arranged to meet once a week and do something after work. It was amazing to hear about the experiences of interns in other departments and find out more about what they were doing on a day-to-day basis.

Leeds is a great city with so many things to do and see. I live in the area so living costs were extremely cheap.

It is great!

All the interns got involved with a CSR day. As I was only there for 6 weeks, I could not get involved in much more. However, I know of so many things I can do when I start my job there. At EY you can get involved in as little or as much as you would like.
