About You
It was interesting to learn the different aspects of Accounting. I learnt that it wasn't just straight forward accounting but three different sectors.
We were all welcomed and made to feel as one. We were all treated equally and fairly.
It was mostly an informative session and so support wasn't required. However, when it was needed it was given to us.
It aided me in my decision not to work in accounting. I was useful to learn the different aspects and so If I did decide to go into accounting than I could made an educated choice.
The Company
It was all well structured, with introductions at the start and a quiz to summarise. We had a quiz at the end which was completely irrelevant but still summed up the day.
It was a really friendly atmosphere. Employees as well as other attendees were all very kind and helpful.
None.
Partly.
Wasn't based on company culture.
It aided me in my decision on whether accounting was a viable career choice.
Everything Else
There was no reimbursement required.
Yes, over lunch.
There were only some over lunch.
No.
Maybe, depending on how interested they were.
