Recommendations and Advice
Overview of Experience
Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
The insight showed me what some of the services do day by day and it gave me an insight of what it is actually like .I would of loved if they gave us examples we could complete on what someone in tax /advisory/audit would do
What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
It made me rethink my future plans and instead of being an audit for the whole of my career I would want to explore other options such as advisory/tax
