The Role
Being away at client for the entire 6 weeks made the experience all the more enjoyable giving me an insight into how it would feel to have full time employment.
The majority of the time I was given sections to complete where I was able to work at my own pace within the time constraint.
The application from an accounting degree to on the job experience will give me a deeper understanding leading into my final year of university.
The Company
Good atmosphere to work in, with great conversation between all staff.
In respect to the first week of training and being able to get the experience with working on clients the overall organisation was excellent as I was always on site at various clients.
In the first week we spent four days of training with constant help from the other staff and designated buddy throughout.
