Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
I was involved with preparing accounts for companies, using CCHAPS to create the accounts and amend any changes such as adding journals to the trial balance. I utilised an auditing software to audit individual sections of an account such as wages and salaries, finding relevant documents to verify the numbers calculated in the accounts. I also completed multiple call and casts to ensure the details in the accounts were correct.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
I was given a moderate amount of responsibility during 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've learnt how to use an auditing software called ProAudit and CCHAPS which is an accounts production software. Within both of these programs I have familiarised myself with most of the functions needed to complete an audit and create a completed set of accounts. I also learnt new accounting terminology and fortified former accounting knowledge with these programs.
