Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
I was working within the audit department being delegated work from a multitude of my peers with a range of different tasks to complete. I was involved in multiple training sessions and meetings with management. I was also able to speak with people from all departments giving me more of an idea of the business as a whole
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
I was given multiple tasks on actual clients to complete. The range of these tasks were not too in depth, however I was kept busy for the duration of the internship
Please rate how meaningful the work you were doing was

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills, or developed your existing skills?
I am a lot more competent with software such as CaseWare, Inflo, and Excel. I have also learnt a lot about how businesses operate as a whole and how all the departments seem interlinked. Furthermore, I believe this internship improved my confidence due to how welcoming the workers are as well as how much they welcome questions.
