Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.

For the first week it was mainly introduction sessions, getting to know the ropes of the business. From the second week onwards i had the opportunity to shadow numerous members of many different tax teams, being given new work everyday and being directly involved in many client calls.

Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?

For most projects i was working on the final copy before it was sent to the client. Additionally my changes were all permanent so it was very important that i got it right first time and didn't make any mistakes.

Please rate how meaningful the work you were doing was
