The Role
Challenging but thoroughly enjoyable
Felt welcomed from the first day and was invited to teambuilding evenings and lunches
Full guidance and support answering all of my questions and dropping whatever they were doing to help me.
Most days I was fully busy but rarely left the office after 6pm.
I was given the full responsibility of a graduate trainee working on client audits and real projects. There was also someone more senior to turn to and give me help and assistance.
Training week was crucial to all the audit work I undertook.
The Company
friendly atmosphere a really great place to work. People worked hard but werent afraid to have a good chat or fun t the end of the day.
Fantastically organised throughout: nights out were great and my program allowed me to gain an invaluable insight into audit.
Invested hugely in my training and development.
Company Parties/Events
Hopeful for a job.
The Culture
Great social events both organised through work and amongst the other interns.
Very high, particuarly London.
