Overview of Experience

Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
The insight was begun with a EY Partner Welcome, sharing about their work experience and thoughts in EY. We had a panel discussion with EY's stuff and an overview of what Assurance looks like in EY. Then, we held case study session in small groups.Finally, professor delivered an excellent talk on building personal brand.
What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
After having a general overview over the business, I have better insight over what roles best suit me and what to choose in the future. The business culture presented is quite attractive, which allows me to better engage into the business.
