Overview of Experience

Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
1st day was online, mainly speaker panel events and learning about Assurance. 2nd day was in office with some more panels, networking and mock assessment centre.
What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
It was good to understand what Assurance at EY is all about; it helped me get a sense of whether it is something I would be interested in doing in the future.
