Transaction Support Intern Review

I had a lot of fun attending the team socials and getting to know them on a personal level. Additionally I increased my interest in EY by becoming aware of the opportunities to learn about business and law as well as accountancy.

I felt that I engaged very well with the team and helped them with various tasks that were quite interesting. However, I didn't have a lot of tax experience so wasn't given a huge amount of responsibility, as expected.

My counselor was extremely helpful throughout the internship and assisted me with my general queries and problems with a lot of enthusiasm. She also gave me valuable advice on how to receive an offer at the end of the internship.

There were periods of time when I was extremely busy and had an active role helping the team with certain projects such as tax audits. Occasionally there were times that I was only doing jobs such as scanning and printing, but they were often a needed break.

You can't expect to be running the show on a six week internship. I was given enough responsibility to add to the client work that was being done however.

There was a lively dynamic in the office, accompanied with a very friendly and hard-working atmosphere. The managers often brought in cakes and biscuits for everyone to enjoy when they needed a break.

We had specific goals to complete during the course.of the internship and our councillors and 'buddies' helped us attain these goals.

We were given three days of introductory meetings at the start of the internship. Here we developed and attained valuable communication and managerial skills, in addition to gaining awareness of different personalities during team based activities.

As long as you manage your work loAd efficiently, show enthusiasm and get on well with the team an offer his highly likely at the end of the internship.

We had 10 interns in Leeds and we went to lunch together quite often, as well as going on a bowling.social halfway through the internship - which was funded by EY! I still keep in contact with some of the interns even now the internship has finished.

There are various pubs and clubs in leeds, all of which are walking distance from the office. I lived in student accommodation which was only a short train from the office and relatively cheap.

There is an extremely lively and varied nightlife in the city centre which is a short walk from the office.

There was a cricket club in the department however the 5 a side football wasn't very active while I was there.
