The Role
The internship was a great insight into Audit, and provided huge exposure to a wide range of clients operating in different industries.
Everyone in the office made us feel welcome and made sure to include us in the social activites.
Our supervisor organised meetings with us on a regular basis and ensured we were provided with regular feedback.
Allowed to complete whole sections and minor parts of other sections during the Audit.
The whole experience has built my confidence and improved my technical knowledge of Audit.
The Company
Brillant - the atmosphere was relaxed and very social.
Well organised - a training week was organised during the first week, so everyone was in the same boat. Various social activities were organised throughout the internship which kept the internship fun.
A week's worth of training was organised which was fantastic.
Sports and Social Club
National Travel
Company Parties/Events
The Culture
Various social activities were organised throughout the internship including a football tournament, 5-a side football each week and meals out during the evenings.
