    The Role

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy your work placement or internship?

    • It was great doing an internship where you're doing the job that you would as a graduate.

    4/5
  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued by your colleagues?

    • Everyone at EY made myself and the other interns feel welcome, from the graduates to the partners. We knew the work we were doing was important.

    5/5
  • 3. To what extent were you given support and guidance by management/your supervisor(s)?

    • The people I worked with were really helpful, I could always ask questions and get good feedback on work.

    5/5
  • 4. How busy were you on a daily basis?

    • As with any job there were busy times and quiet times, but the overall balance. There was always work to do if you looked for it, and the workload was never more that I could handle.

    4/5
  • 5. How much responsibility were you given during your placement?

    • The job the interns do is the same work that would be expect of a graduate, so we were expected to talk to clients and do work which would contribute to the final report.

    4/5
  • 6. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and training you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?

    • The work I did at EY really adds perspective to what I am studying at university. It's good to see what the 'real world' version of accounting is like, compared to what we learn in the classroom.
